Lyrics
MR. RIGHT – music and lyrics by Richard C. (Kluso) Tollini © 2005
You told me one day that I don’t know how you feel
like a river that meets a dam or rock tryin’ roll up a hill
Now you’re on fire trying to find what you need
And earthly desires bring you right here back to me
Can’t you see
So you came here one day thinkin’ in the back of your mind (you had found your prize)
But life has a funny way of smackin’ you back into the light (now its shining in your eyes)
And you’re on fire running round out in the street You’re
Walking the high wire that’s cuttin’ through the soles of your feet
Can’t you see Can’t see
You’re calling Mr Right so you think he can find his way
Across your ocean of dispair here he comes to save the day
Calling Mr Right
Now, even if I showed you how to find your way
Every time you’d fight it so, anyway you like it you keep calling Mr Right
And earthly desires bring you right here back to me you’re
Walking the highwire that’s cuttin’ through the soles of your feet
Can’t you see Can’t you see
Calling Mr. Right and everything you need him to be
To free you from your chains and rescue you from tragedy
Calling Mr. Right –
ooouhh sha la la la la -- ooouhh sha la la la la
