Matt Corby - Wrong Man Lyrics






You know you're talking to the wrong man, my friend
I was on the fence
Wasting time in future tense
And all I came here for was finding love to help me understand my own
It's undefendable

And now you wanna tell me you're devoted
All the while you told me you don't know
And now you wanna come and sell me what I already own
And now you're trying to teach me what I already know

You know you're talking to the wrong man, my friend
When they bleed you out
I won't blame you now
And all I came here for was finding love to help me understand my own
Right, wrong or legal

And all the greatest hands that I would hold in mine
All the times I had to let them go
And now they wanna come and sell you what you already own
And now they're trying to teach you what you already know

You know you're talking to the wrong man, my friend
I'll still make amends
Gaining time in present tense
And all I came here for was finding love to help me understand my home
And redefine it all

So the air I'll breathe in to drown in the sea
I've been beat up and did you know
You said you'd know
I get a little bit chewed up
I wouldn't if I had known
And seeing some part of you hopeful
I know and I know you don't
See, I'm busy easy falling down degrees
I know you won't count on me yeah
And the truth never bothers me
I know and I know you don't
You're celebrated for your time awake
I know you won't be sleeping high

You know you're talking to the wrong man, my friend
When they bleed you out
I won't blame you now
And all I came here for was finding love to help me understand my own
Right, wrong or legal

    이 영상만 보면 생각이 많아지고 인생이 부질없고 맷의 말이 다 맞는거같고 결론적으로 눈물 줄줄남..... 하 쉬발 오늘도 이해 못할 사람들때문에 속상해서 돈이 대체 뭘까 인생이 대체 뭘까 현타와서 방구석에 쳐박혀있다가 이 노래 들으려고 유튜브 켰다.... 난 당신 없었음 진작 우울증 오거나 자살했을거야. 내 일상과 영혼을 든든하게 지켜줘서 정말 고마워. 내 진심이 전해졌음 좋겠어

  21. P.... S....

    I first heard Matt Corby when he was a teenager on some lowbrow talent show. When he came on with a guitar and a song that he'd written himself. And when I heard him sing my ears pricked up and I thought then here is someone to watch in the future years.

  34. M.... ....

    This is so Beautiful 😭 best Song and performance by him.

  35. R.... S....

    he seems like a mother nature element, with this powerfull or sweet voice, the intense chords and armony...

  36. a.... a....

  37. A.... ....

    I can't believe that this is live wow! Man you touched my heart so damn hard

  38. B.... a....

    So the air I'll breathe in to drown in the sea
    I've been beat up and did you know
    You said you'd know
    I get a little bit chewed up
    I wouldn't if I had known
    And seeing some part of hopeful
    I know and I know you don't, see
    I'm being easy falling down the breeze
    I know you won't count on me
    And the truth never bothers me
    I know and I know you don't
    You're celebrated for your time away
    I know you won't be sleeping

    [Chorus]
    You know you're talking to the wrong man, my friend
    When they bleed you out I won't blame you now
    And all I came here for was finding love
    To help me understand my own
    Right, wrong, or legal

    Beautiful. I was directed to Matt after searching for another piece, and I've been in love, ever since.

  50. j.... ....

    Such passion and the deepest universal love he has for his music. You can hear it in every split second of this song...no word or words could describe this brilliance. We are so blessed to be able to be alive and to be able to listen to what she would describe as pure heaven. I now believe in angels...here is living proof. : )

  51. k.... T....

    Matt Corby.
    Love him his talent is pure beauty.

  52. H.... N....

    PHENOMINAL

  53. L.... Z....

  57. t.... s....

    The voice of an angel

  58. M.... L....

    Listening to this incredible mans music inspires me to start writing music again. I love him so much.

  59. S.... ....

    He sings from his soul and it just radiates from within outward.

  60. L.... G....

    I can' t stop smiling

  61. B.... B....

    I've been to countless gigs, shows, concerts, festivals and the ONLY one I went to by myself and did not care about being alone was when I went to see Matt Corby.
    The power of his voice and musical talents are pure bliss and heaven to the ears. My soul gravitates towards the rawness of his emotional, expressive stories through his unique musical techniques.
    Definitely one of my top favourite artists of all time.

  62. s.... s....

    What piano?

  63. A.... R....

    Matt! You are amazing but your self doubt and insecurities are going to F you up.Talk to Daniel Johns! The music business chews you up and spits you out.

  64. S.... M....

    I met him when we were 16 and he was an amazing singer then and I remember saying "you're going to be big." I'm so happy he is. His music is transcendental.

  65. C.... B....

    I can't believe the uniqueness of this man's voice! There is so much happening on the 'music scene' today and it's such an overload of sound!So it's just so nice to be reminded that song Is actually a gift in the heart of a person!I'm grateful that I can find this on the internet, wherever I am. Keep sharing and thank you! This music should be honoured!!
