Red Rubber Ball
Words & music by Paul Simon and Bruce Woodley

I should have known you'd bid me farewell
There's a lesson to be learned from this
and I learned it very well

Now I know you're not
the only starfish in the sea
If I never hear your name again
it's all the same to me

And I think it's gonna be all right
Yeah, the worst is over,
Now the morning sun is shining like a Red Rubber Ball

You never cared for secrets I'd confide
For you I'm just an ornament,
Something for your pride

Always running, never caring,
That's the life you live
Stolen minutes of your time
were all you had to give

And I think it's gonna be all right
Yeah, the worst is over,
Now the morning sun is shining like a Red Rubber Ball

The story's in the past with nothing to recall
I've got my life to live and I
don't need you at all

The roller coaster ride we took is
nearly at an end
I bought my ticket with my tears,
that's all I'm gonna spend

And I think it's gonna be all right
Yeah, the worst is over,
Now the morning sun is shining like a Red Rubber Ball
