  • Baby don't you wait that long
    You told me underneath that song.
    But there's somethin' 'bout the way you move,
    Yeah it gets to me like a melody.

    I don't wanna wait all night,
    Cause soon it's gonna pass me by.
    I only wanna make you smile
    Let me get to you like I always do.

    Show me how you really feel
    Make it all go and disappear.
    We can dance into the night,
    Come together and we'll make it right.
    Come together and we'll make it.

    We got more than a lifetime,
    To make it all feel right.
    So don't apologize,
    You gotta be wrong sometimes.
    We got more than a lifetime,
    To live inside these lines,
    We were right all along.
    You gotta be wrong
    Gotta be wrong sometimes.

    Every little thing you say,
    Got me lifted and I'm on my way.
    Baby come with me, you don't have to stay.
    You follow me like a memory.

    Show me how you really feel,
    Make it all go and disappear,
    We can dance into the night,
    Come together and we'll make this right,
    Come together and we'll make it right.

    We got more than a lifetime,
    To make it all feel right.
    So don't apologize,
    You gotta be wrong sometimes.
    We got more than a lifetime,
    To live inside these lines,
    We were right all along.
    You gotta be wrong
    Gotta be wrong sometimes.

    Maybe the world will let us stay,
    Give us back what it took away.
    Or maybe I'm just high, so high.
    Somewhere out there in between,
    Being wrong and being clean,
    I see it all inside your eyes.

    We got more than a lifetime,
    To lose our mind
    I'm ready to fall, we gotta be wrong!

    You move like a melody,
    Everything they've got you've seen
    That's why you keep coming back to me for so long.
    We got to get wrong
    You move like a melody,
    Everything they've got you've seen
    That's why you keep holding on to me for so long.
    We got to get wrong

    We got more than a lifetime,
    To make it all feel right.
    So don't apologize,
    You gotta be wrong sometimes.
    We got more than a lifetime,
    To live inside these lines,
    We were right all along.
    You gotta be wrong,
    Gotta be wrong sometimes. Writer/s: DEREK A E FUHRMANN, GREGG WATTENBERG, MARC ANDREW ROBERGE
