Good Man

I was looking for love that I'd heard about People said I found it when he came around Can you be swept off your feet if you're not on solid ground? They said you'll grow to love him, if you don't love him now If he gave me a reason I could get up and leave And if I could only cry, then maybe I could feel I wish I could blame him for me wanting to be free But in our lonely bed, I'll choose this good man over me He's everything they said he'd be and I wish that were enough When you settle it's not compromise, its comfort over love We sit in separate rooms, I've let go of what's not fair I lose myself in long ago while he plays solitaire If he gave me a reason I could get up and leave And if I could only cry, then maybe I could feel I wish I could blame him for me wanting to be free But in our lonely bed, I'll choose this good man over me Who am I to think that I could hold what's in my dreams And how long do you wait for the one that's meant to be At night, I lie longing for what ifs and could have beens And pretend that he's the one I love and that I'm a good woman If he gave me a reason I could get up and leave And if I could only cry, then maybe I could feel I wish I could blame him for me wanting to be free But in our lonely bed I'll choose this good man, good man He's a good man over me Good man Good man Good man
