Lyle Lovett - Good Intentions текст песни

Its a sunny day in california

But that old sun its shining on me right here at home

Its one of those days

When those great ideas they just seem to fall out on you

And they always fall the greatest when youre falling all alone

It makes for a good day for some serious reflection

And massive rationalization

For contemplating the future of the future

And the last of the past

And wondering if you could ever forgive me darling

All the trouble that I put to you

And if I could forget all those questions

That I never asked

And if I could forgive

The temporary weight gain due to excess water retention

I could forgive the rest too

Its just a fact of life

That no one cares to mention

She wasnt good

But she had good intentions

So the grass it grows

When the sun it shines

And my face it glows

When the womans mine

And you say Im a fool-around

Honey that may be true

But Id sooner fool around

Than be a fool for a fool

And if I could forgive

The unadulterated adulterating apprehension

I could forgive the rest too

Its just a fact of life

That no one cares to mention

She wasnt good

But she had good intentions

So Im twenty-six and rising

Still too young to live

But too low to go

I guess its the process

Of learning to excess

All of those things

That you already know

And if I could forgive

The honey-i-swear-it-didnt-mean-a-thing-to-me

Attempt at abstention

I could forgive the rest too

Its just a fact of life

That no ones cares to mention

She wasnt good

But she had good intentions
