[Verse 1]
He was six-foot-one
Barefoot, standing in the shade
And I was stunned, so completely blown away
The kind of guy you only see in movies and in magazines
And it was going perfectly until they introduced her to me
[Chorus]
Right place, wrong time
Somebody hit rewind
Give me a magic wand
Make her be gone, gone
Right place, wrong time
Lost in the wrong girls eyes
I'd lead him in the right direction
If I could get his attention
Every time I meet the perfect guy
Right place, wrong time
[Verse 2]
I curled my hair
New perfume and brand new make-up
I just knew he'd look at me and fall in love
I dressed to k** to make him mine
I had a plan, a grand design
Thought the stars had lined up right
Man, sometimes I hate my life
[Chorus]
Right place, wrong time
Somebody hit rewind
Give me a magic wand
Make her be gone, gone
Right place, wrong time
Lost in the wrong girls eyes
I'd lead him in the right direction
If I could get his attention
Every time I meet the perfect guy
Right place, wrong time
[Bridge]
It's like I'm always one day late
Or half a dollar short
By now I should've quit the game
If I was keeping score
[Chorus]
Right place, wrong time
Somebody hit rewind
Give me a magic wand
Make her be gone, gone
Right place, wrong time
Lost in the wrong girls eyes
I'd lead him in the right direction
If I could get his attention
Every time I meet the perfect guy
Right place, wrong time
Right place, wrong time
Why won't he just be mine?
Right place, wrong time
Why can't I get it right?
