Rue The Day

Rue The Day - Rory Gallagher
You seemed to be like a real good idea
At the time at the time
You lifted me up to some higher ground
Then you knocked me down oh on the ground
But I rue that day like I don't know how
You picked me up right out of the tide
My eyes weren't open wide
Oh
I was blind
But I see much better much better now
Well I roll with the punches I sway with the curves
I walked on a tightrope didn't lose my nerve
Stayed on the canvas couldn't count me out
Never threw in the towel yeah I saw the fight out and how
Oh
All fifty rounds
Wah oh
Da da da lu lu lu lu lu oh
Oh
Well I roll with the punches I sway with the curves
I walked on a tightrope didn't lose my nerve
Stayed on the canvas couldn't count me out
Never threw in the towel yeah I saw the fight out and how
Yeah
You lifted me up to some higher ground
Then you me knocked down oh on the ground
You lifted me up right out of the tide
My eyes weren't open wide
Oh
I was blind
But I see much better much better now
Oh
You seemed to be like a real good idea
At the time oh don't know why
But I rue that day like I don't know how
Aye
I rue that day as of now
Oh
I rue that day like I don't know how
Ya
