Paul Simon
Red Rubber Ball
I should have known you'd bid me farewell
There's a lesson to be learned from this and I learned it very well
Now, I know you're not the only starfish in the sea
If I never hear your name again, it's all the same to me

And I think it's gonna be alright
Yeah, the worst is over now
The morning sun is shining like a red rubber ball
(2x)

You never care for secrets I confide
For you I'm just an ornament, something for your pride
Always running, never caring, that's the life you live
Stolen minutes of your time were all you had to give

And I think it's gonna be alright
Yeah, the worst is over now
The morning sun is shining like a red rubber ball
(2x)

The story's in the past with nothin' to recall
I've got my life to live and I don't need you at all
The rollercoaster ride we took is nearly at an end
I bought my ticket with my tears and that's all I'm gonna spend

And I think it's gonna be alright
Yeah, the worst is over now
The morning sun is shining like a red rubber ball
Yeah, the morning sun is shining like a red rubber ball
Oh, morning sun is shining like a red rubber ball
