I should´ve known you´d bid me farewell;
There´s a lesson to be learned from this, and I learned it very well.
Now I know you´re not the only starfish in the sea:
If I never hear your name again, it´s all the same to me.
Chorus:
And I think it´s gonna be all right;
Yeh, the worst is over now;
The mornin´ sun is shinin´ like a red rubber ball.
You never cared for secrets I´d confide;
To you I´m just an ornament, somethin´ for your pride.
Always runnin´, never carin´, that´s the life you live.
Stolen moments of your time were all you had to give.
(Chorus)
The story´s in the past, with nothin´ to recall;
I´ve got my life to live, and I don´t need you at all.
The rollercoaster ride we took is nearly at an end;
I bought my ticket with my tears; that´s all I´m gonna spend.
(Chorus twice)
Whoa, whoa, it´s bouncin´, and it´s shinin´ like a red rubber ball.
