Perfect Guy At The Wrong Time

from Songs From a Shit Summer by Marc Gallagher

/

about

This song came about on the ferry back home from Northern Ireland. I had gone through the phase of ‘Oh everything is so sad’ and I wanted to write something more reflective discussing the circumstances based on quotes from her, and this was the result of it.

lyrics

We were one, you and I, together for life, our best sides were released
You weren't one for early nights, still had a wild side, still need to unleash the beast

I was the perfect guy at the wrong time
I was the perfect guy at the wrong time

Didn't want to settle down, you hadn't been around, you hadn't fully lived
You're tied down with me, you want to be free, so something had to give

I was the perfect guy at the wrong time
I was the perfect guy at the wrong time

Solo

You were still in love, it wasn't enough, still hadn't seen the world.
I know it's not all bad, you want to come back, soon you'll be my girl

I was the perfect guy at the wrong time
I was the perfect guy at the wrong time
