There's a right way of leavin'
A kind way to kill her doubt
Oh, but what I found the hard way
It's always hard to let her down
There's a right way of bein'
A thousand ways to drink her in
And it's an endless game
Always wise to let her winThere's a heart for forgivin'
Again and again
And there's a part for the actors
In the life that we play
There's a mile for the journey
Awhile for the learning
And we learn to be wrong the right wayThere's a fine way of stealin'
Like a longer way to walk her home
Just to buy more time
I know that can't be wrong
There's a calm way of breathin'
When life keeps comin' endlessly
When it's hard sometimes
Just stand here next to meThere's a heart for forgivin'
Again and again
And there's a part for the actors
In the life that we play
There's a mile for the journey
Awhile for the learning
And we learn to be wrong the right wayBack on you to hold us together
Left undone the hope just fadesThere's a heart for givin'
Again and again
And there's a part for the actors
In the life that we play
There's a mile for the journey
Awhile for the learning
And we learn to be wrong the right way
We have to learn to be wrong the right way
