Paul Simon
Red Rubber Ball
Oh, I should have known
You'd bid me farewell
But there's a lesson to be learned from this
And I learned it very well
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 all right
Yes, the worst is over now
The morning sun is shining
Like a red rubber ball

You never cared
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 moments of your life
Were all you had to give

And I think it's gonna be all right
Yes, the worst is over now
The morning sun is shining
Like a red rubber ball
The story's in the past
With nothing to recall
I've got my life to live
And I don't need you at all
The roller coaster ride we took
Is nearly at an end
But I bought my ticket with my tears
That's all I'm gonna spend

And I think it's gonna be all right
Yes, the worst is over now
The morning sun is shining
Like a red rubber ball

Think it's gonna be all right
Yes, the worst is over now
The morning sun is shining
Like a red rubber ball

Think it's gonna be all right
Yes, the worst is over now
The morning sun is shining
Like a red rubber ball
