Wrong Time, Wrong Place by Taylor Swift is a poignant and raw song capturing moments where I found myself in troubling situations. From a party disruption leading to a broken leg to witnessing abuse outside a club, this track delves into the heart of misfortune and resilience. Drinking away sorrows and questioning if it's the last call, the song is a testament to enduring hardships while navigating life.
[Verse 1]
I was just looking for a good time
Another party out of town, following the beat and the sound
But the night took a turn, faster than I could learn
Someone hit me with their car, now my leg’s a broken scar
[Pre-Chorus]
In the wrong place, the wrong time
Is this gonna be my last call?
Trying to see the rhyme or reason
Behind it all
[Chorus]
Wrong time, wrong place, questions in my mind
All these moments I find, stitch them up in line
Broken bones, hearts and sorrows
Can I face tomorrow?
Every scar tells a story, a glimpse of my plight
Wrong time, wrong place, fighting through the night
[Verse 2]
One cold night, standing outside the club
Saw a couple fighting, pain in their eyes, no love
The boy was high, gripping her tight
I tried to intervene; he kicked my ass, took away the light
[Pre-Chorus]
In the wrong place, the wrong time
Is this gonna be my last call?
Trying to see the rhyme or reason
Behind it all
[Chorus]
Wrong time, wrong place, questions in my mind
All these moments I find, stitch them up in line
Broken bones, hearts and sorrows
Can I face tomorrow?
Every scar tells a story, a glimpse of my plight
Wrong time, wrong place, fighting through the night
[Bridge]
Drinking my sorrows away
In a bar, empty glass, will I ever see the day?
Reflecting on the past, the battles I've faced
In the mirror, a stranger’s trace
[Chorus]
Wrong time, wrong place, questions in my mind
All these moments I find, stitch them up in line
Broken bones, hearts and sorrows
Can I face tomorrow?
Every scar tells a story, a glimpse of my plight
Wrong time, wrong place, fighting through the night
[Outro]
But I’m still here, standing tall
Even after the nights where I almost lost it all
Wrong time, wrong place, it’s part of my tale
In every misstep, I rise, I will prevail
Chords not available
Beat not available
Moments in time where I found myself in the wrong place. Is this gonna be my last call?
I was showing up at a party out of town. Someone decided to hit me with their car and I broke my leg.
One night I showed up outside a club and saw a couple fighting. The boy was on drugs and being abusive. I tried to do the right thing and stop him but he was too much for me a kicked my ass.
Drinking my sorrows away.
Taylor Swift
