Lyrics
WEREN?T WE GOOD
(Claire Ulanoff/Ronnie Harrison)
Smoke rising high in a cold winter sky
Trees lined up bare and gray
Feels like the whole world just knows
We?re going our separate ways
You?ve been so sad and baby I?m tired
I want us to both look back and smile
Weren?t we good?
I?d stay if I could
But people change, people leave
Forever turns out differently
Oh girl just tell me the truth
Weren?t we good
Maybe I have all those memories wrong
Or just how I wish it was
I thought that we had it all
A better than perfect love
We gave it our best, that?s all we could do
I couldn?t expect any more from you
(chorus)
If all those dreams were not meant to be
Maybe the answer?s still out there for you and me
When we walk away, when we look back
Let?s never regret the love that we had
(chorus)
