When the Right One Comes Along Lyrics by John Schneider

You Ain’t Seen The Last Of Me

1987

[Verse 1]
He was your lover
At least he said he was
But I never saw him
Treat you like a lover does
He used to hold you
But there was no tenderness within
And I've always wondered what a woman like you
Was doin' with a man like him
[Verse 2]
And you can cry
Oh, you can have your little heart attack
And you can lie to yourself
But it's never gonna bring him back
And you can try livin' all alone, if you want to
You can do anything that you please
But if you're ever gonna make a change in your life
You've gotta get up off your knees
[Chorus]
Come on, baby, let's go for a ride
Put the top down, let it roll
Slide in on the passenger side
I've got a tank full of gas, heart full of soul
You think your life is over now darling
I wanna show you you're wrong
'Cause life can be a beautiful thing
When the right one comes along
When the right one comes along
[Verse 3]
You think he's gonna come back someday
And you wanna be ready, in case
You know it's never gonna happen that way
It's as plain as the tears on your face
And there's a heart waitin' for ya right here
Right here in the palm of your hand
But if you're ever gonna take another chance at love
You'd better grab it while you can
[Chorus]
Come on, baby, let's go for a ride
Put the top down, let it roll
Slide in on the passenger side
I've got a tank full of gas, heart full of soul
You think your life is over now darling
I wanna show you you're wrong
'Cause life can be a beautiful thing
When the right one comes along
When the right one comes along
[Bridge]
Come on, baby, let's go for a ride
Come on, baby, let's go for a ride
When the right one comes along
[Chorus]
Come on, baby, let's go for a ride
Put the top down, let it roll
Slide in on the passenger side
I've got a tank full of gas, heart full of soul
You think your life is over now darling
I wanna show you you're wrong
'Cause life can be a beautiful thing
Once the right one comes along
Now the right ones come along
[Outro, to fade]
Come on, baby, let's go for a ride
Slide in on the passenger side
I've got a tank full of gas
