Lyrics Richard Thompson

Richard Thompson

I've Got No Right To Have It All

I wish you well

And darling keep in touch

And if he loves you

I hope he loves you as much

It's just my fantasy

You leaving him for me

I've got no right to have it all

Life's little gifts

I know I've had my share

And for a while

I know I had you there

Who carries the pain

For me to love again

I've got no right to have it all

If time stopped in it's tracks

Is that what paradise might be

I'll cling like a drowning man

To my driftwood piece of memory

And where's the peace of mind

Among the debris left behind

This is the point

Where we act crazy or sane

We walk away now

Never to embrace again

I'll say god bless

And wish you happiness

I've got no right to have it all
