WRITER'S NOTES:

In the notes for "What are the Lies?" I talked about Gigi who I met at a strip club in Atlanta. Gigi had the most beautiful eyes, and I frequented the club just to sit and look in her eyes.

But strip club relationships are not exactly a strong relationship. HA! And I have to admit that once in a while I thought that it would be nice if I could give up everything else in my life and just spend time with her. Guys are like that!

But naturally, nothing ever happened with us. It wouldn't have been right. And eventually, I had to leave Atlanta and go back home to my normal life. But that doesn't mean that I liked it.

I knew that I wouldn't ever do anything. But strip clubs are nothing but fantasy, and I let myself feel that fantasy. After all, it makes for good songs. A songwriter must suffer for their art <grin>. I only went to the strip club to do research for the songs. HA!

Quietly I will walk away

We both know it's the right thing for me to do.

But I don't want to be right

No I don't want to be right

I just want you, wo oh.

Sadly I will say goodbye

It's the only thing that we have left to do

But I don't want to be right

No I don't want to be right

I just want you. Oh.

Chorus: The dreams have all been broken

I fell for all your lies

I'll never forget the feelings I felt

Everytime I looked into your eyes.

I guess I'll be leavin' now

You could call me back if you wanted to

'Cause I don't want to be right

No I don't want to be right

I just want you.

The Band that will change your view of Rock and Roll!
