Lyrics

Good for Me

I would like to walk straight lines
do my Christmas cards on time
keep my house so clean,
invite the queen of anything
what is the measure of success?
today a bedroom with no mess
tomorrow moon and sun and stars
the next day nothing less

Things I had not planned to do
like waking up each day with you
like coffee with whipped cream
thought I?d stumbled into
someone else?s dream

too good for me
too good for me
too good for me
good for you

I believe life is a gift
we were both brought here for this
four score in-between us
is a long time for a kiss
Those Cinderella years
before we made it to the ball
looks like we might make it
to forever after all

Things I had not planned to do
like waking up each day with you
like coffee with whipped cream
thought I?d stumbled into
someone else?s dream

too good for me
too good for me
too good for me
good for you

I would like to look like her
that perfect-looking girl
the one with straight white teeth
all toned up underneath
she would probably like the same
she?d change her looks, her job, her name,
as if a rose is not a rose is not a rose
it?s all a game ? outside insane
the color of umbrella
doesn?t matter to the rain
