Big Finish

Take your time, tell me slow

Should I stay?

And we both know you thought you knew

What I was just about to say

But you didn’t know, and you always think you do

I’ll tell ya, I been looking back over my shoulder

It’s not you that I’ve got to blame

If I could do this all over, I wouldn’t do nothing the same

It seemed like the right thing at the time

It seemed like the right thing at the time

I try to remember, it helps me forget

The older I get

The older I get the more I worry that the more I worry the older I get

And yet, I still worry

Ain’t that about a son of a bitch, I tell ya

Some people can’t take no for an answer

Some people can’t even take yes for an answer

I can’t say for sure how I end up here but if I had to guess, I guess…

It seemed like the right thing at the time

It seemed like the right thing at the time

Tryin’ to find some kinda way to cope

You’ve got to admit it ain’t the despair that gets you

It’s the hope

When I found myself with in Bozaga with these car keys

I just naturally assumed that I could drive

It seemed like the right thing at the time

It seemed like the right thing at the time
