It started out like a song, we started quiet and slow with no surprise, Then one morning I woke to realize we have a good thing going. It's not that nothing went wrong, some angry moment of course, but just a few, And only moments no more because we knew we had a good thing going. And if I wanted too much, was that such a mistake? Half the time you never wanted enough, oh wake up, I don't make that a crime, And while it's going along, you take for granted some love will wear away, We took for granted a lot, and still I say, it could have kept on growing, Instead of just kept on, we had a good thing going, going, gone. [musical interlude] And if I wanted too much, was that such a mistake? Half the time you never wanted enough, oh wake up, I don't make that a crime, And while it's going along, you take for granted some love will wear away, We took for granted a lot, and still I say, it could have kept on going, Instead of just kept on, we had a good thing going, going, gone.
