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

send it out into the blue

the people danced to the sound of your heart

the world sang along to it falling apart

but i sympathize

and i recognize

baby

i apologize

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 some day i hope that you'll understand

that i sympathize

and i recognize

baby

i apologize

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 sympathize

and i recognize

baby

i apologize

that i got the good side

the good side of things

that i got the good side

the good side of things
