The Sisters of Mercy
I Was Wrong
You say stay and never leave
You say meant for ever
Oh I could believe you, but I don't
You say we're almost all alone together
All alone
You say
You say you will
I know you won't
[Chorus]
I was wrong
I was wrong to ever doubt
I can get along without
Now I can love my fellow man
But I'm damned if I'll love yours
In a bar that's always closing
In a world where people shout
I don't wanna talk this over
I don't wanna talk it out
I was quite impressed until I hit the floor
But isn't that what friends are for?
Pain looks great on other people
That's what they're for
[Chorus]
I was wrong
I was wrong to ever doubt
I can get along without
Yeah I can love my fellow man
But I'm damned if I'll love yours
Oh, you say stay and never leave
You say meant for ever
I could believe you, but I don't
You say we're almost all alone together
Yeah you say
You say you will
I know you won't
[Chorus]
I was wrong
I was wrong to ever doubt
Oh I can get along without
Oh I can love my fellow man
But I'm damned if I'll love yours
In a bar that's always closing
In a world where people shout
I don't wanna talk this over
No I don't wanna talk it out
Oh I was quite impressed until I hit the floor
Isn't that what friends are for?
Oh pain looks great on other men
That's what they're for
[Chorus]
I was wrong
I was wrong to ever doubt
I can get along without
Yes I can love my fellow man
But I'm damned if I'll love yours
