Neil Diamond - Red Rubber Ball lyrics

I should have known

you'd bid me farewell

There's a lesson

to be learned from this

And I learned it very well

And 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

And I think it's gonna be all right

Yeah, the worst is over now

The mornin' sun is shinin'

like a red rubber ball

You never cared for secrets I'd confide

For you I'm just an ornament

Somethin' for your pride

Always runnin', never carin'

That's the life you live

Stolen minutes of your time

Were all you had to give

And I think it's gonna be all right

Yeah, the worst is over now

The mornin' sun is shinin'

Like a red rubber ball

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 roller coaster ride we took

Is nearly at an end

I bought my ticket with my tears

And that's all I'm gonna spend

And I think it's gonna be all right

Yeah, the worst is over now

The mornin' sun is shinin'

like a red rubber ball

Whoa, oh,

Oh I think it's gonna be all right

Yeah, the worst is over now

The mornin' sun is shinin'

like a red rubber ball
