Seemed Like a Good Idea (At the Time)

Ross Wilson, John Farnham, and Ross Fraser I've been a fool, I have been cruel You put your faith in me Ask myself why, no alibi Now that you're facing me Did things my way, I've had my say Sometimes I crossed that line But it seemed like a good idea Seemed like a good idea at the time I know I was wrong, I'm holding on Learning is hard to do It's not too late, if you will wait I'll make it up to you If you refuse, then I will lose I let our life unwind But it seemed like a good idea Seemed like a good idea at the time Seemed like the ring thing 'Til I watched you go Seemed like the right thing But I lost control Out in the darkness I saw a light And now I know A bitter taste has taken the place Of kisses that were so sweet Open my eyes, I realise My lesson is complete If it ain't broke, don't try to fix it Sometimes I crossed that line But it seemed like a good idea Seemed like a good idea at the time It seemed like a good idea Seemed like a good idea at the time Did things my way, I've had my say Sometimes I crossed the line But it seemed like a good idea Seemed like a good idea at the time Seemed like a good idea Seemed like a good idea at the time --- Seemed Like a Good Idea (At the Time) - John Farnham
