Red Rubber Ball

[Verse 1]

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

[Chorus]

And I think it's gonna be alright

Yes, the worst is over now

The mornin' sun is shinin'

Like a red rubber ball

[Verse 2]

You never cared

About secrets I confide

For you, I'm just an ornament

Something for your pride

Always runnin', never carin'

That's the life you live

Stolen minutes of your time

Were all you had to give

[Chorus]

And I think it's gonna be alright

Yes, the worst is over now

The mornin' sun is shinin'

Like a red rubber ball

[Verse 3]

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

[Chorus]

And I think it's gonna be alright

Yes, the worst is over now

The mornin' sun is shinin'

Like a red rubber ball
