good, not great

(album: (L)only Child - 2021)

I've been kinda cold, baby
Not as fun to hold lately
If I could I'd make you the one

I wish that I could just wake up
And make all of the math add up
Funny how the pros feel like cons

I'd say the difference between good and great
Tends to be worse than just wrong for me

We're just too good
For my own good
It's too bad that I don't think I really love you
The way that I should
'Cause good's just not great
Good's just not great

I hate the way my mom loves you
Hate the way my dad does too
If I were them then I'd take your side

I hate that you were so stable
It makes it even more painful
I hate that you did everything right

We're just too good
For my own good
It's too bad that I don't think I really love you
The way that I should

'Cause good's just not great
What can I say?
It's too bad that I think I really love you
As much as it takes

I say the difference between good and great
Tends to be worse than just wrong for me
