Good Thing Songtext
von Jules Olson

"My best friend is falling in love,
I′m falling apart again
And really I couldn't be happier,
Those two just make sense.
But some days I can′t help but wonder,
why it's never me to keep a good thing.
And Emma says "shift your perspective, it's just the sense you′re looking through."
And she may be young, but she′s right.
At least half the time.
And she says I'm a good thing.
Well aren′t I a risk worth taking?
A rule worth breaking?
A book worth the read?
When I look in the mirror
I see it so clearly,
All the good in me.
There was this boy for a few months,
And I don't know why but
I still think about him all the time.


We′d stay up talking,
Getting no sleep.
Yeah we were a good thing.
And maybe that is all we will ever be,
A good thing that got away from me.
Now I try to be patient,
Give myself some grace.
But there's something so sweet,
In taking the blame,
And holding onto a good thing.
Oh ′cause aren't I a risk worth taking?
A rule worth breaking?
A book worth the read?
When I look in the mirror
I see it so clearly.
A risk worth taking,
A rule worth breaking,
A book worth the read,
All the good in me."
