Good Enough

Lyrics

I guess I took it for granted
 You'll bury me someday
 All the big plans that I planted
 While you planned your own escape
 Never thought I was the greatest
 But I was great for you
 Just assumed I was your favourite
 With no one else to choose
 I try to kiss your face, you turn away
 No one ever taught me the protocol
 What do you do when the good guys change their mind?
 'Cause I used to think that if I tried my best I'd always win
 But I'll sit in your favourite dress and ask you where you've been
 People don't leave people if they really are in love
 I was good, just wasn't good enough
 I was good, just wasn't good enough
 There were four eyes in the garden
 Two cried but two looked down
 Now you're asking for a pardon
 'Cause I'm a good time, pound for pound
 And you say this was a hard one
 But lately you felt stuck
 And I thought I was first place
 But I was runner-up
 I try to kiss your face, you turn away
 No one ever taught me the protocol
 What do you do when the good guys change their mind?
 'Cause I used to think that if I tried my best I'd always win
 But I'll sit in your favourite dress and ask you where you've been
 People don't leave people if they really are in love
 I was good, just wasn't good enough
 I was good, just wasn't good enough
 I never said I was perfect
 Just thought I was perfect for you
 But all that was worthless
 'Cause if I couldn't be one, I wouldn't ever be two
 Thought I was the way home, but I was an obstacle to move
 I never said I was perfect
 Like you
 'Cause I used to think that if I tried my best I'd always win
 But I'll sit in your favourite dress and wonder how you've been
 And did you ever mean it when you said you were in love?
 I was good, just wasn't good enough
 I was good, just wasn't good enough
 I was good, just wasn't good enough
 
 I guess I took it for granted
 You'll bury me someday
 All the big plans that I planted
 While you planned your own escape
 Never thought I was the greatest
 But I was great for you
 Just assumed I was your favourite
 With no one else to choose
 I try to kiss your face, you turn away
 No one ever taught me the protocol
 What do you do when the good guys change their mind?
 'Cause I used to think that if I tried my best I'd always win
 But I'll sit in your favourite dress and ask you where you've been
 People don't leave people if they really are in love
 I was good, just wasn't good enough
 I was good, just wasn't good enough
 There were four eyes in the garden
 Two cried but two looked down
 Now you're asking for a pardon
 'Cause I'm a good time, pound for pound
 And you say this was a hard one
 But lately you felt stuck
 And I thought I was first place
 But I was runner-up
 I try to kiss your face, you turn away
 No one ever taught me the protocol
 What do you do when the good guys change their mind?
 'Cause I used to think that if I tried my best I'd always win
 But I'll sit in your favourite dress and ask you where you've been
 People don't leave people if they really are in love
 I was good, just wasn't good enough
 I was good, just wasn't good enough
 I never said I was perfect
 Just thought I was perfect for you
 But all that was worthless
 'Cause if I couldn't be one, I wouldn't ever be two
 Thought I was the way home, but I was an obstacle to move
 I never said I was perfect
 Like you
 'Cause I used to think that if I tried my best I'd always win
 But I'll sit in your favourite dress and wonder how you've been
 And did you ever mean it when you said you were in love?
 I was good, just wasn't good enough
 I was good, just wasn't good enough
 I was good, just wasn't good enough
