Right when I was wrong
​
I was driving completely
in the wrong direction
If you hadn’t planned to leave me
I would still be without connection
So even though I don’t think
you deserve this song
​
I guess I have to thank you
for being right when I was wrong
I guess I have to thank you
for being right when I was wrong
​
Every time I visit
the neighborhood where you live
I try to remind myself
that they say it’s best to forgive
But I’m still angry with the way
you treated me for so long
Still I have to thank you
for letting go when I held on
Still I have to thank you
for letting go when I held on
​
There are still so many things
that I would like to say to you
But I know that if I wrote you a letter it would never get through to you
Now the words slip so easy from my tongue
In this process of heartache
with which I am finally done, and
I just want to thank you
for being right when I was wrong, and
I want to thank you
for letting go when I held on, and
I want to thank you
for the freedom that I have won.
