Well, I was looking through my computer and found the first ever recording of "That Right One." It's a great moment when a song goes from being on your head onto a recording for the first time. If you want to listen, it should be on the site shortly. You can tell it's an early version because I go flat on the first chorus (not used to singing it yet!), I screw up the strum pattern once or twice, and the bridge doesn't exist yet. Well here are the lyrics!

That Right One - written and recorded by Final Round

These wings are on me, like heaven sent
how much I spent was worth everything.
So much has died just to ensure my flight.

Words come flowing like crashing waves,
no accolades for my word-forming
my focus dies, and I know why

When she rings, words take on whole other meanings
and I fail to explain what I'm thinking
Thoughts whirl around me and then I have to start again.

Lightning crashes, the smoke has cleared,
and all we've feared has been uncovered.
The ground's in sight and it's built up twice as high.

When she rings, words take on whole other meanings
and I fail to explain what I'm thinking
Thoughts whirl around me and then I have to start again.


I'll find that one, that right one
and you'll know just what I felt -- love.
The same place as where that came from
will cover all you're made of
and we'll settle down and be done
and I'll sing this song to you again.

This song is simply about saying the wrong thing, and then finding the right thing to say to make everything better. No need to go into detail about interpretation - let the words mean whatever you want them to mean for you.

- Matt from Final Round

By the way, Dan's backups kind of add a lot to the song, don't they?
