when she was good Lyrics

I used to know such a sweet girl, it's a miracle we ever met

I still think about her now and then and the first thing she ever said

Do you believe in taking chances, do you wanna take a chance on love

I took a long look into her eyes she said there's nothing in here to be afraid of

When she was good, there was no one better

When she was good, all the pieces fit together

When she was good, oh I could dream all night

When she was good, everything in this world was alright

She took me down some back roads and showed me a secret place

She knew everything about me like it must've written all over my face

We'd go down by the river at night and lie underneath the stars

She'd put my hand across her heart and say I'm always gonna be wherever you are

When she was good, there was no one better

When she was good, all the pieces fit together

When she was good, oh I could dream all night

When she was good, everything in this world was alright

Nothing lasts forever, every story has an end

We had a fight and she ran out, you know how it is my friend

She came back to tell me there's really nothing left to say

I took a long look into her eyes and picked up my things and went on my way

When she was good, there was no one better

When she was good, all the pieces fit together

When she was good, oh I could dream all night

When she was good, everything in this world was alright
