You Were Good

Jimmy Eat World · Damage [2013]

It could have been but never was

At least the way you thought it'd be when you grew up

And there's so much of you I love

but loving you alone isn't enough



You were good

You were good

Then you were gone

I believed you all along

Yeah it's sad but baby here we are

It was good

It was good

Then it was gone



You got a charm you wear around your neck

Reminds you of him and I can see right through

Either you're just bad at cheating

Or there's something your heart you wished I knew



You were good

You were good

Then you were gone

I believed you all along

Yeah it's sad but baby here we are

It was good

It was good

Then it was gone



So I'm not who you wanted but

You're still the one who sets the fire in me

Guess I'll drink what I'll drink

Until the loving touch I need is not a need



You were good

You were good

Then you were gone

I believed you all along

Yeah it's sad but baby here we are

It was good

It was good

Then it was gone

It was good

It was good

Then it was gone

It was good

It was good

Then it was gone
