lyrics

Used to think we belonged but then we were always on the outside
shouting above the crowd until we realised there was no one listening
Used to laugh so hard, up against the world caught up in the romance
and we felt so invincible till it broke us in the end
Wrong place wrong time

Why did you have to run?
you weren't the only one
wrong place wrong time
I'll never understand why
and though you try to hide I know it hurts your pride
but now it's gone too far

Was it always so hard? Did we just lose faith in ourselves at the wrong time?
Did we think we deserved it all?
When the walls went up was it too high to climb?
We could say that we tried, maybe next time we'd have luck on our side
Are we kidding ourselves again? we were never built to last
wrong place wrong time

Why did you have to run?
you weren't the only one
wrong place wrong time
and now I understand why
and though you try to hide I know it hurts your pride
but now it's gone too far
wrong place wrong time

Why did you have to run?
you weren't the only one
wrong place wrong time
and now I understand why
and though you try to hide I know it hurts your pride
but now it's gone too far
wrong place wrong time

Just like us to make it so hard

First Impression
by The Reflectors

supported by 17 fans who also own “Wrong Place Wrong Time”

Wow! A time machine back to 1980 with killer pop hooks and lyrics about girls and relationships and all that stuff that power pop is about. I bought the album and The Reflectors sent me an additional CD, that I guess is the first record, along with a sticker and button. Thanks guys! Amazing Power Pop! philipspence

Turn It On!
by Romero

supported by 14 fans who also own “Wrong Place Wrong Time”

I know it's an obscure reference, but the singer reminds me of Anneke van Giersbergen from the Gathering. The singer of Romero is a highlight of the band's sound, and the power-pop tunes are driven by her. Looking forward to future releases of this band. Bart
