I Got a Right

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

They tell me I'm a fool, I'm dreamin'

If I think that you could fall in love

With just someone like me

I can't believe it would be so tough

(Be so tough)

But what else can I do? I love you

Each time I look into your eyes, I see

(Each time I see)

The only lover, the only one

(I know it)

I have discovered the time has come

I, I got a right

To tell you how I feel

Even though you don't feel the same

Oh, I, I got a right

To try and change your mind

To try and make you mine

You want to be there anytime

But I want you to care the way I do

It just seems so unfair

To keep true love from finding you

(Finding you)

But if you felt the same, you'd know that

That I am not to blame for what I've done

(I'm not to blame)

If there's a law against loving you

(I'd know it)

How can you blame me for wanting to?

I, I got a right

To tell you how I feel

Even though you don't feel the same

Oh, I, I got a right

To try and change your mind

To try and make you mine, whoa, whoa

I, I got a right

(I got a right, I got a right)

To tell you how I feel

Even though you don't feel the same

Oh, I, I got a right

(I got a right, I got a right)

To try and change your mind

To try and make you mine, whoa, whoa

If you felt the same, you'd know that

That I am not to blame for what I've done

(I'm not to blame)

If there's a law against loving you

(I'd know it)

How can you blame me for wanting to?

I, I got a right

(I got a right, I got a right)

To tell you how I feel

Even though you don't feel the same

Oh, I, I got a right

(I got a right, I got a right)

To try and change your mind

To try and make you mine

I, I got a right

(I got a right, I got a right)

To tell you how I feel

Even though you don't feel the same

Oh, I, I got a right

(I got a right, I got a right)

To try and change your mind

To try and make you mine, whoa, whoa

(I got a right, I got a right)

They tell me I'm a fool

(I got a right, I got a right)

I'm dreamin'

(I got a right, I got a right)

But what else can I do?

(I got a right, I got a right)

I love you

(I got a right, I got a right)

I think that you could fall in love with me

(I got a right, I got a right)

(I got a right, I got a right)

But what else can I do?

(I got a right, I got a right)

(I got a right, I got a right)
