Good Thing Going - Not A Day Goes By

It started out like a song

We started quiet and slow, with no surprise

And then one morning I woke to realize

We had a good thing going

It's not that nothing went wrong

Some angry moments of course, but just a few

And only moments, no more, because we knew

We had this good thing going

And if I wanted too much, was that such a mistake at the time?

You never wanted enough, alright, tough

I don't make that a crime

And as 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

Not a day goes by

Not a single day

But you're somewhere a part of my life

And it looks like you'll stay

As the days go by

I keep thinking, "When does it end?

Where's the day I'll have started forgetting?"

But I just go on thinking and sweating

And cursing and crying

And turning and reaching

And waking and dying

And no

Not a day goes by

Not a blessed day

But you're still somehow part of my life

And you won't go away

So there's hell to pay

And until I die

I'll die day after day after day after day

After day after day after day

'Til the days go by

'Til the days go by

And if I wanted too much, was that such a mistake at the time?

You never wanted enough, okay, tough

I don't make that a crime

And as 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
