Good Times Gonna Come Lyrics
need to know
if you're letting go
it's alright
didn't know
I was hurting you
it's alright
you came from nowhere
with nothing
and no-one
hold tight
goes to show
you never really know
it's alright
this is just one of those
lonely nights
the good times gonna come
see me then
investing so much
in you
came so close
to the edge
i do
in the end
we let it all go
we let it all go
we let it float away
on the breeze
'round the bend
the sun is in the sky
it's starting to to look like
it's gonna be
a bright
beautiful day
if you're letting go
it's alright
didn't know
I was hurting you
it's alright
with nothing
and no-one
hold tight
goes to show
you never really know
it's alright
lonely nights
the good times gonna come
investing so much
in you
came so close
to the edge
i do
we let it all go
we let it all go
we let it float away
on the breeze
'round the bend
the sun is in the sky
it's starting to to look like
it's gonna be
a bright
beautiful day

"I wrote this about a year ago, reflecting on a shitty time in my life and wishing I could have known it was going to work out ok in the end.
It was originally a strange piano waltz, but mutated into a strange guitar waltz.
I was particularly pleased with the sound of the riff at the beginning which was made by blu-tacking paper clips to the piano hammers." - Matt Hales
well that kinda ends the discussion
Wow, lol. Where do you get these quotes?? I do love the strange music in the background...they're always a little different than what you'd normally expect... Especially the high parts on the piano, they sound so haunting, almost sarcastic.
I can't believe this song doesn't have more comments! I think it's such a powerful song especially when the chorus kicks in. It means so much to me because I know the good times ARE going to come :)
I heard this song on skins last week and LOVED i mean LOVED it... i looked for it for ages before i found it.. Now i always associate it with the whole maxxie-sketch-stalker thing lol... GREAT SONG
This song is awesome! Yeah, I heard it on Skins too. Awesome show, that!
Is this song meant to be sad or happy? I'm confused! It's like parts of the lyrics are hopeful and stuff, yet the sound is sad, and slightly depressing (in a good way).
I think it's supposed to show that maybe times are bad now but of course, the good times will come!!! Such a song for hope
These lyrics take on a whole new meaning after that Skins scene...ha.
I love how this song is supposed to be building you up and telling you that it'll all be alright but the music is utterly depressing and obscure sounding. It makes it so much more real.
First off, Skins is an amazing show. So hooked. Seconldy, this song... it's great. It has a lot of emotion, and it has a pretty basic meaning to it.
