The Good Side
I got the good side of things,
Left you with both of the rings,
My fingers danced,
And swayed in the breeze,
The change in the wind took you down to your knees
I got the good side of you,
Sent it out into the blue,
The people danced,
To the sound of your heart,
The world sang along to it falling apart
But I sympathise,
And I recognise,
And baby, I apologise,
That I got the good side,
The good side of things
I got the good side of life,
Travelled the universe twice,
So many thoughts I wanted to share,
But I didn’t call because it wouldn’t be fair
Then I got the good side of new,
Found arms to fall right into,
I know how it looked, It wasn’t the plan,
And someday I hope that you’ll understand,
That I sympathise,
And I recognise,
And baby, I apologise,
That I got the good side,
The good side of things
I’m sure we’ll meet in the spring,
And catch up on everything,
I’ll say I’m proud of all that you’ve done,
You taught me the ropes, and you taught me to love
But I sympathise,
And I recognise,
And baby, I apologise,
That I got the good side,
The good side of things
Sympathise,
Recognise,
Apologise,
That I got the good side,
The good side of things
