patty griffin - had a good reason lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
i guess you’re never gonna come back for me, ma
with a suitcase of pretty dresses and shoes
one for you and one for me, ma
and perfume for the ladies looking after me too
there was a chair beside the door i wished you’d walk through
wearing your sad eyes and frown
you’d stand beside me and we’d wind the victrola
and sing along together
make the sweetest sounds

[chorus]
i used to think it might be who i am
maybe who i am wasn’t right
and i’d wonder if you missed me the same way
lonely day after lonely night
but i know you must’ve had a good reason
you had a good reason, alright

[verse 2]
i guess you’re gonna never see me a-shining
all the lines of people winding around the block
the world is mine, and it’s a microphone in my hand
singing with a band, ma, the toast of the town
sometimes i think i see you out there a-smiling
your pretty sad eyes singing along
and all at once i’m a bird with no ceiling
a voice and a feeling like i’ll never come down

[chorus]
i used to think it might be who i am
maybe who i am wasn’t right
and i’d wonder if you missed me the same way
lonely day after lonely night
but i know you must’ve had a good reason
you had a good reason, alright
