[ti:You Were Right About Everything]
[ar:Erin McKeown]
[al:WFUV City Folk Live 8]
[00:15.42] You were never broken by ordinary things
[00:22.29] You kept holding out for the big mistake
[00:28.56] I was fragile, too scared, too delicate
[00:34.28] You kept trying, I'm the one that quit
[00:40.91] Worn out by baggage that we bring
[00:47.31] You were right about everything
[01:00.52] There were times your age began to show
[01:06.59] You were never more dangerous to know
[01:12.62] You passed me running, you caught me standing still
[01:18.83] You would do it all again, all for the thrill
[01:25.55] I was raised, you get out before you sink
[01:32.44] And you are brave about everything
[02:04.17] Nostalgia, sweet, hindsight is so dear
[02:10.87] Objects now are smaller than they appear
[02:17.27] The birds of summer, in winter they disappear
[02:23.51] In spring return new life, oh, new years
[02:29.80] Now, here I am, I am humble on my knees
[02:35.96] Come back to life, come back to everything
[02:42.12] Come back to life, come back to everything
[02:48.81] Oh, you were right about everything
[02:55.17] Oh, you were right about everything
[03:01.52] Oh, you were right about everything
[03:53.52] Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
