Lyrics
2. I Might Be Wrong 4:04
music and lyrics by Ernest Troost
This don’t seem like the place I know
The paint is peeling and the primer shows
We shouldn’t have quit, after so long
But I might be wrong
Those old curtains, they’re faded and frayed
We left them hangin’ when we went our separate ways
Forgiveness waits with curtains drawn
But I might be wrong
chorus
It don’t seem like the sky is as blue
It don’t seem like the truth is true
It don’t seem like love’s come and gone
But I might be wrong
This don’t seem like the place we lived
The porch is leanin’ and a strut’s about to give
Held up by hopes that linger on
But I might be wrong
chorus
We were all wind and rain on that day
When we tore it up and blew it all away
I can hear the rain fallin’ with its mournful song
But I might be wrong
chorus
It don’t matter if it all turns to dust
The chimney crumbles and the railings rust
It will be all right in the clear light of dawn
But I might be wrong
