Lyrics
GOOD ENOUGH FOREVER
music and lyrics by Joe Olivier
I remember hosting your show.....you tried me for death row..
your attempt was to confiscate my inner soul into matromone
My thoughts were so construed, you sensed I was confused....
You were right, that was I tight, by hiding all my inner gloom.
Good enough forever, good enough forever, good enough forever my love...
Good enough forever, good enough for..ever, good enough forever my love...
Did you stop.(pause)... and think... mind was on the brink,
didn?t you realize my fear was searching for console
and you think that you fear that you feel love has crossed your line of pride
and your risking temperate love (did you ever really think you could kill my pride)
Good enough forever, good enough forever, good enough forever my love...
Good enough forever, good enough for..ever, good enough forever my love...
The night was so complete...you?d be my last defeat
..But what I wanna know is HOW.........
could you see ..that.. I?m coverinupthefeelin when I?m...down... low but I?m reachinfortheceiling so you?ll take back the things you said :
(like Mr. Cu-sac, you?re better off dead)
And I be-lieved what you said....took for granted the days in bed..
Among all other things.......
and there .I..am....the chewing... gum on the bed post ...
Lost my flavor I guess....but that?s the way it goes....
Once again .. Deja Vu.......
Over and over and over and over ?.
Good enough forever, good enough forever, good enough forever my love...
Good enough forever, good enough for..ever, good enough forever my love...
