The Goonies 'R' Good Enough Lyrics
Here we are
Hanging on these chains of greed and blues
Break the chain and we break down
Oh it's not real if you don't feel it
Unspoken expectations
Ideas you used to play with
They've finally taken shape
What's good enough for you
Is good enough for me
It's good enough
It's good enough for me
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Now you say
You're startin' to feel the push and pull
Of what could be and never can
You're merely me stumblin' through those
Old fashioned superstitions
I find too hard to break
Oh maybe you're out of place
What's good enough for you
Is good enough for me
It's good enough
It's good enough for me
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
(Good Enough) for you
Is good enough for me
It's good, it's good enough
It's good enough for me
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Old fashioned superstitions
I find too hard to break
Oh maybe you're out of place
What's good enough for you
Is good enough for me
It's good enough
It's good enough for me
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
(Good Enough) for you
Is good enough for me
It's good, it's good enough
It's good enough for me
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Hanging on these chains of greed and blues
Break the chain and we break down
Oh it's not real if you don't feel it
Unspoken expectations
Ideas you used to play with
They've finally taken shape
Is good enough for me
It's good enough
It's good enough for me
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
You're startin' to feel the push and pull
Of what could be and never can
You're merely me stumblin' through those
I find too hard to break
Oh maybe you're out of place
Is good enough for me
It's good enough
It's good enough for me
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Is good enough for me
It's good, it's good enough
It's good enough for me
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
I find too hard to break
Oh maybe you're out of place
Is good enough for me
It's good enough
It's good enough for me
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Is good enough for me
It's good, it's good enough
It's good enough for me
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah

Chocolate? HEY, YOU GUYS!!!
yaya she rocks man! the goonies do too!
The Goonies is so awesome! This song makes me wanna watch it! God, I love the 80's. :3
I dnt really see the connection of the Goonies....
The lyrics were not written for the movie. She was approached to contribute to the film, and that song was selected. They even made Cyndi add the movie title to the song; against her wishes. The song was intended to be called, "Good Enough".

I don't understand why they pushed this song into The Goonies when the lyrics don't seem to have anything to do with it. I loved the movie, of course... and this song.
When I hear this song, I'm hearing a song about someone who finally realizes that expectations of life and their relationship aren't realistic. You just have to be happy with what you have because that's what you get. Everyone has this grand idea of what their future is going to be like, and it's just not reality. So what? Enjoy the ride.
@StevieKnocks 100% well said\r\nI hear a song about young love including unreal expectations doubt and fear if failure. \r\n

Has anyone else seen the video (it's available on the Goonies DVD and probably YouTube also)? It's the most deliciously cracked-out thing I've seen pretty much ever.
