words and music by Jimmy Nail
|
|
my arms are just as strong as his arms
|
but my arms had to let you go
|
you walked straight into his arms
|
hadn't I the right? hadn't I the right to know?
|
|
my heart is really such a big heart
|
with big love and room enough to grow
|
so my heart was summarily ripped apart
|
but I hadn't I the right? hadn't I the right to know?
|
|
I want to tell everybody all around the world
|
to stay away from you 'cause you're a wicked girl
|
but no can do
|
I'm still in love with you
|
'cause in a world gone crazy where nothing rhymes
|
the breaking of a heart is just a small-beer crime
|
even so, I think I had a right to know
|
|
one day when all of this is far away
|
I'll say "that's the way it goes"
|
until then let me remember when
|
I held you oh, so tight, I think I had a right to know
|
|
I want to tell everybody all around the world
|
to stay away from you 'cause you're a bad bad girl
|
but you know me, too much decency
|
'cause in a world gone crazy where nothing rhymes
|
and breaking someone's heart is just a small-beer crime
|
even so, I think I had a right to know
|
