Lyrics Saint Etienne

Saint Etienne

A Good Thing

(Ba ba ba)

(Ba ba ba)

(Ba ba ba)

Take a message, let me know

Put on her shoes before she goes

Hazel eyes and auburn hair

How could she tell it's all for nothing?

Far away from what you want

Another night to spend alone

And now you really know

It's gone, it's gone, it's gone

You know it was a good thing

The best thing

Last thing you should have left behind

Out of nowhere

Out there

Looking all the way back

It's a good thing

The best thing

Last thing you should have left behind

Out of nowhere

Out there

It's gone, it's gone, it's gone, it's gone, it's gone

A small cafe across the street

I heard you meet there every week

Got your favorite necklace on

How could you tell it's all for nothing?

Pack your bags and move along

Before your feelings get too strong

'Cos I can tell you now

It's gone, it's gone, it's gone

[chorus]

[spoken]

He looked away, pretending not to see her

She tried to say something, but nothing came out right

He's lost the best thing

One day it'll hit him

One day...

It's gone, it's gone, it's gone, it's gone...

[chorus to fade]
