Tim Finn - Many's the Time (In Dublin) lyrics

T. Finn-O'Maonlai-White Many's the time I'd do anything just to belong Many's the time what I did I would feel to be wrong I was only trying too hard Just to belong I was only trying too hard The wind pulled the water Bonfire burning high You took me in your arms And told me I could cry I didn't want to hurt you I felt something was wrong I didn't mean to want you Just to belong First we got turned away Then we got welcomed in First we got turned away Then we got welcomed in I was only trying too hard A place to begin I was only trying too hard We drove past the nightclub In a beaten up old car The man on the door said "Do we know who you you are?" They gave us fruit co*ktails That we didn't want to drink Techno music coming through I started to think Where are the people That we welcomed in Where is the place The place to begin It's got to be someone It's got to be now Many's the time I'd do anything just to belong Many's the time what I did I would feel to be wrong I was only trying too hard Just to belong I was only trying too hard I made it my purpose I made it my plan The rulers of the world Would never understand You are my dancing queen I wanna hear you sing The day that you do I'll be your dancing king First we got turned away Then we got welcomed in First we got turned away Then we got welcomed in I was only trying too hard A place to begin I was only trying too hard And if my words were stars I'd send you a skyful It felt so good It felt so easy It felt so good It felt so easy
