Lyric Something So Right

Words & music By Paul Simon

You ve got the cool water
When the fever runs high
You ve got the look of lovelight in your eyes
And I was in crazy motion
Til you calmed me down
It took a little time
But you calmed me down

When something goes wrong
I m the first to admit it
I m the first to admit it
And the last one to know

when something goes right
Well it s likely to lose me, mm
It s apt to confuse me
It s such an unusual sight
Oh, I can t, I can t get used to something so right
Something so right

They ve got a wall in China
It s a thousand miles long
To keep out the foreigners they made it strong
And I ve got a wall around me
That you can t even see
It took a little time
To get next to me

When something goes wrong
I m the first to admit it
I m the first to admit it
And the last one to know
when something goes right
Well it s likely to lose me, mm
It s apt to confuse me
because it s such an unusual sight
Oh, I can t, I can t get used to something so right
Something so right

Some people never say the words "I love you"
It s not their style
to be so bold
Some people never say the words "I love you"
But like a child they re longing to be told, mm

When something goes wrong
I m the first to admit it
I m the first to admit it
And the last one to know
when something goes right
Well it s likely to lose me, mm
It s apt to confuse me
because it s such an unusual sight
I swear, I can t, I can t get used to something so right
Something so right
