Right and Wrong

If everything was perfect
And life was but a breeze
I'm not sure exactly
How that would feel to me

If life was but a song
That we all could hum along
I'm not sure how right that'd feel
If something was not wrong

If everything was right side up
And not a thing was upside down
Would we ever really know
When the good times roll around

Can we take this opportunity
To realize what we should know
How things would not feel right 
If something was not wrong

If you're late coming to this party
In the perfection that you seek
How on earth can you be happy 
If you never have a need

I believe they both go hand in hand
Never travel far alone
Because right would not feel right
If something was not wrong
