Good Thing Gone

Another restless night
For me to realize
I was misguided by her beauty
Blindsided by her eyes
She walked into my arms
And I could not let go
I was a fool in love
The first to fall, the last to know
Now someday I’ll fall in love again
But I don’t know if and I can’t say when
We had a good thing goin’
A fool in paradise
Now I’m living my freedom
Now that she is out of my life
This is my celebration
This is my victory song
We had a good thing going
Now she’s just a good thing gone
She’s just a good thing gone
Nothing but a good thing
Nothing but a good thing gone
Fighting tooth and nail
Down in Old Town Square
Every passerby
Wonders why and stops and stares
Is this the way it goes?
Is this the way it ends?
Are you gonna laugh at me
And say that we can still be friends?
Out of luck and out of time
Sometimes passion ain’t worth the crime
We had a good thing goin’
A fool in paradise
Now I’m living my freedom
Now that she is out of my life
This is my celebration
This is my victory song
We had a good thing going
Now she’s just a good thing gone
She’s just a good thing gone
Nothing but a good thing
Nothing but a good thing gone
