Words and music by jimmy nail

My arms are just as strong as his arms
But my arms had to let you go
You walked straight into his arms
Hadn't I the right? hadn't I the right to know?

My heart is really such a big heart
With big love and room enough to grow
So my heart was summarily ripped apart
But I hadn't I the right? hadn't I the right to know?

I want to tell everybody all around the world
To stay away from you 'cause you're a wicked girl
But no can do
I'm still in love with you
'cause in a world gone crazy where nothing rhymes
The breaking of a heart is just a small-beer crime
Even so, I think I had a right to know

One day when all of this is far away
I'll say that's the way it goes
Until then let me remember when
I held you oh, so tight, I think I had a right to know

I want to tell everybody all around the world
To stay away from you 'cause you're a bad bad girl
But you know me, too much decency
'cause in a world gone crazy where nothing rhymes
And breaking someone's heart is just a small-beer crime
Even so, I think I had a right to know
