You're a prison I can't escape You're a decision I never make Heard me laughing You heard me weep and moan When it's good, it's good When it's gone, it's gone
They say time will kill the pain I say pain is gonna kill my time Lord won't you save me Or leave me alone
When it's good, it's good When it's gone, it's gone
I hang your picture above my mind Don't do anything you can't deny I could never be your pawn When it's good, it's good When it's gone, it's gone
Some drink to remember Some to forget Some for satisfaction Some to regret I hope a brighter day to you I've shown
When it's good, it's good When it's gone, it's gone
