A Good Deal

[Verse 1]

My plan to play it cool

Has not been going well

I have such a hard time

Keeping the anger hidden

I've run it through my head

A dozen times or more

And each time it ends with me

Not acting as I did

[Chorus 1]

A grievous oversight that I cannot erase

You couldn't know where to take it to

And none of it matters now, however I appeal

All of it's gone, I've missed a good deal

[Verse 2]

You disappointed me

In ways I cannot count

But you were the best thing

To happen to me

And that is no reason to

Forget all that you've done

I couldn't expect you to

Give credence to my plea

[Chorus 2]

A grievous oversight that I cannot erase

You couldn't know where to take it to

And none of it matters now, however I may feel

All of it's gone, I've missed a good deal

[Bridge]

An effortless beauty I had not come across

It's a heavy loss

And now it's my cross

To bear forever more

I can be sure

[Outro]

And nothing else matters now, whatever I reveal

All of it's gone, I've missed a good deal
