Lyrics to What Gives You The Right
I had a good thing going
I was going at it alone
I was doing just fine
All of my wheels in motion, then you motion to me
Only with your eyes
Feel you moving in the back of my mind
Moving the couches, taking down the blinds
I never understood how you could do me so wrong
Baby wake up in the morning, everything was gone
What gives you the right?
What gives you the right?
Baby just like that, your light comes over me
And when it’s shining, I never wanna leave
What gives you the right to come and rescue
Knowing I would trust you even if it meant my life
I was a lonely man
I was a lonely man
I was on my own, I be out of control
There’s so many ways I could do what I want
Suddenly you were taking all of my time
Baby turn me around, making me ask why
I was a lonely man
I was a lonely man
Baby just like that, your light comes over me
And when it’s shining, I never wanna leave
What gives you the right to come and rescue
Knowing I would trust you even if it meant my life
I never planned for surrender
But I’m a fool for your splendor
You’re watching me drown in your river
You’re watching me
You’re watching me
What gives you the right?
What gives you the right?
What gives you the right?
What gives you the right?
I was going at it alone
I was doing just fine
All of my wheels in motion, then you motion to me
Only with your eyes
Feel you moving in the back of my mind
Moving the couches, taking down the blinds
I never understood how you could do me so wrong
Baby wake up in the morning, everything was gone
What gives you the right?
What gives you the right?
Baby just like that, your light comes over me
And when it’s shining, I never wanna leave
What gives you the right to come and rescue
Knowing I would trust you even if it meant my life
I was a lonely man
I was a lonely man
I was on my own, I be out of control
There’s so many ways I could do what I want
Suddenly you were taking all of my time
Baby turn me around, making me ask why
I was a lonely man
I was a lonely man
Baby just like that, your light comes over me
And when it’s shining, I never wanna leave
What gives you the right to come and rescue
Knowing I would trust you even if it meant my life
I never planned for surrender
But I’m a fool for your splendor
You’re watching me drown in your river
You’re watching me
You’re watching me
What gives you the right?
What gives you the right?
What gives you the right?
What gives you the right?
