Story behind the song
From My Archives ... wrote and recorded it several years ago on some older type equipment. Not as good of a sound as I'd like, but the song is there ... and that's the main thing right now.
Lyrics
Lyrics and Music © By Pete Dowan (SOCAN)
WRONG TIME TO GO
I PICKED THE WRONG, WRONG, WRONG TIME TO GO
A LONG, LONG, LONG TIME AGO
AND NOW I FEEL LIKE THE FOOL THAT I AM
1ST VERSE:
Wish I could say just a dream vaguely remembered
But that's not the way, more a scene I hate to recall
We were young and so eager, but our future looked dim.
Never wanted to leave her, But I sacrificed love knowing she'd go with him
CHORUS:
I PICKED THE WRONG, WRONG, WRONG TIME TO GO
A LONG, LONG, LONG TIME AGO
AND NOW I FEEL LIKE THE FOOL THAT I AM, YES I AM
I PICKED THE WRONG, WRONG, WRONG TIME TO GO
A LONG, LONG, LONG TIME AGO
AND NOW I FEEL LIKE THE FOOL THAT I AM
2nd VERSE:
We shared the wealth of a love sweetly fulfilling
Now I kick myself, there I was, walking away.
Never knew things would turn out sorta good in my life
Stood and watched as love burned out And to think there's a chance could've called her my wife.
CHORUS:
I PICKED THE WRONG, WRONG, WRONG TIME TO GO
A LONG, LONG, LONG TIME AGO
AND NOW I FEEL LIKE THE FOOL THAT I AM
SOLO ...............
We were young and so eager, but our future looked dim.
Never wanted to leave her, But I sacrificed love knowing she'd go with him
CHORUS:
I PICKED THE WRONG, WRONG, WRONG TIME TO GO
A LONG, LONG, LONG TIME AGO
AND NOW I FEEL LIKE THE FOOL THAT I AM, YES I AM
I PICKED THE WRONG, WRONG, WRONG TIME TO GO
A LONG, LONG, LONG TIME AGO
AND NOW I FEEL LIKE THE FOOL THAT I AM
