The Rest of You Lyrics by Paula Kelley

The Trouble with Success or How You Fit Into the World

2003

[Verse 1]
Where was someone when I needed to get through?
Bright and sunny like the rest of you
My head's so stormy I could never get it right
I just know something's wrong with my life
[Verse 2]
Where was someone when I needed to get through?
Bright and sunny like the rest of you
My head's so stormy I could never see the day
I just know something gets in the way
Something's always getting in the way
[Verse 3]
Where was someone when I knew a thing or two?
Dark and cloudy like the rest of you
My head's so sore that I can never get it right
I just know something's wrong with my life
Something's always missing from my life
[Bridge]
How was I bad to you? (ba ba ba)
What did I say? (ba ba ba)
How'd I deserve to get brushed away?
My plea, my call
It's my heart that loses it all
So please, look my way
Look my way
Look my way
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah
[Solo]
