I Was Wrong" - Vision Thing - Sisters Of Mercy



you say stay and never leave

you say meant for ever

I could believe you, but I don't

you say we're almost all alone together

all alone

you say

you say you will

I know you won't

I was wrong

I was wrong to ever doubt

I can get along without

I can love my fellow man

but I'm damned if I'll love yours



in a bar that's always closing

in a world where people shout

I don't wanna talk this over

I don't wanna talk it out

I was quite impressed until I hit the floor

isn't that what friends are for?

pain looks great on other people

that's what they're for

I was wrong

I was wrong to ever doubt

I can get along without

I can love my fellow man

but I'm damned if I'll love yours
