Red Rubber Ball
I should have known you'd bid me farewell
There's a lesson to be learned from this, and I learned it very well
Now I know you're not the only starfish in the sea
If I never hear your name again, it's all the same to me
And I think it's gonna be alright
Yeah, the worst is over now, the mornin' sun is shining like a red rubber ball
You never care for secrets I confide
To you, I'm just an ornament
Something for your pride
Always running, never caring, that's the life you live
Stolen minutes of your time were all you had to give
And I think it's gonna be alright
Yeah, the worst is over now, the mornin' sun is shining
Like a red rubber ball
The story's in the past with nothing to recall
I've got my life to live, and I don't need you at all
The rollercoaster ride we took is nearly at an end
I bought my ticket with my tears, that's all I'm gonna spend
And I think it's gonna be alright
Yeah, the worst is over now, the mornin' sun is shining
Like a red rubber ball
Whoa, whoa, I think it's gonna be alright
Yeah, the worst is over now, the mornin' sun is shining
Like a red rubber ball
Whoa, whoa, it's bouncing, and it's shining
Like a red rubber ball
There's a lesson to be learned from this, and I learned it very well
Now I know you're not the only starfish in the sea
If I never hear your name again, it's all the same to me
And I think it's gonna be alright
Yeah, the worst is over now, the mornin' sun is shining like a red rubber ball
You never care for secrets I confide
To you, I'm just an ornament
Something for your pride
Always running, never caring, that's the life you live
Stolen minutes of your time were all you had to give
And I think it's gonna be alright
Yeah, the worst is over now, the mornin' sun is shining
Like a red rubber ball
The story's in the past with nothing to recall
I've got my life to live, and I don't need you at all
The rollercoaster ride we took is nearly at an end
I bought my ticket with my tears, that's all I'm gonna spend
And I think it's gonna be alright
Yeah, the worst is over now, the mornin' sun is shining
Like a red rubber ball
Whoa, whoa, I think it's gonna be alright
Yeah, the worst is over now, the mornin' sun is shining
Like a red rubber ball
Whoa, whoa, it's bouncing, and it's shining
Like a red rubber ball
