You’re right,
You’ve always been right,
I don’t know why I chose to believe,
There might be a possibility that you could be wrong.
You were right,
About every man I’ve ever dated,
Except for one,
The one who’s stood by me for oh so long.
You were right,
About the economy,
How hard it would be,
Silly me for not listening.
You were right,
About university,
Thank you for pushing me,
To a higher degree.
You were right,
About my anger,
My insecurities,
How ignorant of me.
You were right,
About my being lazy,
Something,
I refused to see.
You were right,
About travelling,
It’s been more,
Than good for me.
I’ve always thought you were a pessimist,
Discovering now you’ve always been a realist,
It’s my fault for not listening,
For letting him take advantage of me.
You’ve been right all along,
I truly hope I’ll continue to believe,
That you’ve always been right,
About what’s good for me.
