Lyrics
TWO PEOPLE SO RIGHT
It was 68 when I first met that girl and we stayed together most of the year
We were so much in love and there was so much we didn?t hear
As the time went by I couldn?t help but cry as I felt us going slowly insane
It all went down so fast I don?t know who there was to blame
But one thing led to another and we found out before too long
Ain?t it funny how two people so right could turn out so wrong?
All our friends would smile as we walked on by; Oh look there goes the pair of the year
It didn?t matter too much what went down when they weren?t there
Well it tore me up and it broke her down what we did I couldn?t take it again
There?s not much left of her and me, well I just pretend.
But one thing led to another and we found out before too long
Ain?t it funny how two people so right could turn out so wrong?
If I go back in time and I try to find out what went wrong well, I couldn?t explain
When you love so hard tell me why there is so much pain
And if I held you tight if we cried all night, could you make me feel like I did before
?Cause I got nothing left I can?t believe there isn?t any more
But one thing led to another and we found out before too long
Ain?t it funny how two people so right could turn out so wrong?
