Good Enough

(album: Denim & Diamonds - 2022)

Patience is a virtue
Battered up and beaten
By the road that horse has traveled
And I've rode so far my rope
Has come unraveled in the rain
Sometimes I get so tired
I don't know if I'll get home again

And Cecil was the first man
To ever teach me patience was
In the palm of my hand
He said "girl, work hard
And just be good to the land
And you'll find love in all that glitters
Sometimes it's tiny as a splinter"

As long as I can be good enough for you
That's good enough for me
Until the end of time
Darling won't you say
You will always be mine
And if I start to stumble
As I make my way back to your arms
I'll remember how you told me
Our love was written out amongst the stars
And you're never too far

So I'll try to show you patience
Even when the whole wide world goes crazy
Even when I get so mad I just can't take it
Sometimes it's hard to shake it
But I made you a promise
And I swear that I won't break it

As long as I can be good enough for you
That's good enough for me
Until the end of time
Darling won't you say
You will always be mine
And if I start to stumble
As I make my way back to your arms
I'll remember how you told me
Our love was written out amongst the stars
And you're never too far

It's a beautiful morning
To tell someone you love them
To tell someone you're thinking of them
All throughout the day
And then in the evening
We'll lay side by side
There's no other place I'd like to hide away

So that's patience, hope, and kindness
And all of those things
That we call on to remind us
Of all the love and the trust we have inside us
So that evil just can't find us
I'll keep my heart protected
So that nothing can divide us

As long as I can be good enough for you
That's good enough for me
As long as I can be good enough for you
That's good enough for me
As long as I can be good enough for you
That's good enough for me
As long as I can be good enough for you
That's good enough for me
