A Good Thing [The Falling Wallendas featuring Todd Sucherman]

A Good Thing
Written by Allen Keller and Scott Bennett

Lead Vocals by Scott Bennett

I wish that your flesh wasn't so very cold
And your eyes painted like marigolds
Girl, you're either gonna wind up in jail
In the trunk of a car or somebody's lunch pail

I know a good thing when I see it

All of the wounds that refuse to heal
Cover the scars that did
But I've forgiven everything you've done
I'll be your fool if I'm the only one

I know a good thing when I see it

All of the things I can't comprehend
When the light goes from "walk"
To "run as fast as you can"
When stranger turns to lover then stranger again

I know a good thing when I see it
I know a good thing when I see it
I know a good thing when I see it
I know a good thing when I see it
I know a good thing (when I see it)
I know a good thing (when I see it)
I know a good thing (when I see it)
I know a good thing (when I see it)
I know a good thing

Interpretation

The way you dress and carry yourself makes me worry about you. I know you've done things you regret, but I forgive you. I don't fully understand you, but I love you.
