I’m gonna write you a letter, I think the sooner the better
‘Cause the time is right to find a better day
I’m an angry young man, man, I wish I was young
My guitar is out of tune even that’s highly strung

And the words we didn’t say last night
Shook the world to the core, we had nothing to say last night
We’d said it all before and I say, lonely times and lonely tears
Will fade away when you disappear

The time is right for me to stray
I’m gonna find a better day
Kickin’ off ‘cause it suits me
I’m gonna leave the country
And the time is right to find a better day

Makin’ sense of my past now
I’ll only love when I want to
‘Cause the time is right to find a better day

Maybe I didn’t love you, maybe you loved her less
Would you have preferred it, if I’d have worn the dress
‘Cos I say, lonely times and lonely tears
Will fade away when you disappear

The time is right for me to stray
I’m gonna find a better day
Lonely times and lonely tears
Will fade away when you disappear

The time is right for me to stray
I’m gonna find a better day
Nowhere to run to, baby, nowhere to hide
I got nowhere to run to, baby, and nowhere to hide
