Good Girl

I haven’t posted a song lyric in a while, and maybe it’s a stretch to call this one, but here it is:

 

Danger’s in your wayward kiss

Filled with hunger, tastes of bliss

Get me to a safer place

The trap, the cage, is your embrace

 

You’re the myth I believed

I took a bite of love-lost grief

Gotta leave this place behind

Gotta find some peace of mind

 

Tell me how we were both wrong

Seems to be your favorite song

In a single solitary sigh

What once was truth became a lie

 

I was no saint but e’er I sinned for a foolish boy with a cocky grin

The ways you taught me ne’er I been, what we were won’t be again

Hope you’ve learned from all we had, never make a good girl go bad

 

If I could get to where you are

A sad state is where I’d be

I’ll stay happy where I am

Only misery loves company

 

I’ve prayed the Lord my soul to keep, resting easy in my sleep

You no longer feed my dreams, the price I paid much too steep

Hope you’ve learned from all we had, never make a good girl go bad
