Better Than Good

© Stephen Fearing 2016 (Wells, BC / Banff, AB)

How many lives have you begun
How many times around the sun
How many people met you
Swore they never could forget you

How many tales have you believed
Only to find you’ve been deceived
I know that when I saw you
I was wondrous strange in love

Good
Better than good together
The picture that you showed me when I met you
Good
Better than good together
Hang it on the wall right where we stood
Better than good

We flipped a coin above the well
It hung in silence, then it fell
Beneath this dull façade
Straight to my silver heart

Talking all night across the wire
The dawn was golden with desire
I packed what I could carry
And gave the rest away

Good
Better than good together
The picture that you showed me when I met you
Good
Better than good together
Hang it on the wall right where we stood
Better than good

Good
Better than good together
Hang it on the wall right where we stood
Better than good
