Story Behind the Song
Mark had an earlier version of this song that he recorded a couple of years ago. He came to me with it because he wasn't too crazy about the lyrics and wanted to see what I could do with it. I fell in love with the melody as soon as I heard it. Several re-writes later, this is what we've come up with.
Lyrics
SO WRONG FOR SO LONG (LET'S MAKE IT RIGHT)
I can't deny it
Though I've tried to hide it for a while
The same attraction
Yeah, the same reaction to your smile
It's got me thinking
Ooh, how my life was complete
Yeah, it's got me thinking
About the way we used to be
It's been so long, since we laughed together
So wrong, if we don't last forever
It's been so wrong for so long
Let's make it right
Soulmates, meant to be united
It's fate, I don't want to fight it
It's been so wrong for so long
Let's make it right
You used to need me
Yeah, you had to feel me everyday
I took for granted
Everything we had and I turned away
It's been so long, baby since I held you
So wrong, I just gotta tell you
It's been so wrong for so long
Let's make it right
Two hearts, loving one another
Let's start, living for each other
It's been so wrong for so long
Let's make it right
This old sensation's unmistakable
I can't replace an irreplaceable
Unbreakable love
Solo
And it's got me thinking
Ooh, I think that I'm missing you girl
And it's got me thinking
About the way we're meant to be
It's been so long, since we laughed together
So wrong, if we don't last forever
It's been so wrong for so long
Let's make it right
Two hearts, loving one another
Let's start, living for each other
It's been so wrong for so long
Let's make it right
