Wiser

When I'm feeling down and out

Life's become a real bad joke

I remember why you left

To make a brand new start

My timing always was the worst

Consideration of my strong suit

After all this said and done

Who will be the wiser?

I never wanted you around

You where always there in spite

We never know which one of us

Who was wrong and who was right?

Knowing this, I guess I'm glad

That you were not around

But it sure would be nice

Just to move you one more night

Sometimes I feel I have to call you

Just to find out how you are

But I know just what will happen

'Cause the hate is still around

Never wanted me around

But I was always there in spite

We never know which one of us

Who was wrong and who was right?

Yesterday, I got your message

The phone was ringing off the hook

You come to say that you were sorry

"Could we make a brand new start?"

When I heard your voice

I broke down and began to laugh

Live and learn, you always told me

My life to live and yours to learn

Never wanted us around

But we were always there in spite

We never know which one of us

Who was wrong and who was right?

When you're feeling down and out

And life's become a real bad joke

Just remember why you left

To make a brand new start

The timing always was the worst

Consideration of your strong suit

After all this said and done now

Who will be the wiser?
