Love got me good

You came in with rain on your sleeves A name I could never forget I sat by the window with time to grieve My heart full of bad bets I’d set You said, “Boy, don’t go too fast,” I said, “Baby, I know that tune.” Now your shoes by my front door at last Got me praying to an old tin moon I tried to play it cool, keep my hands still Tried to hold back the rush of the thrill But you walked through my hard day, clear and real Like a fire lighting up the hill Love got me good, love got me lost Love made me sing what I never had Love got me high, love got me crossed Turned my whole world into a back road sad Love got me low, love got me deep Every breath I take, I can’t keep up Even in the dark, I’m counting sheep Holding on to the edge of your touch Now the coffee’s gone cold on the stove Your ring left a mark on the table deep I hear your laugh in the screen door’s groan When the house settles into sleep I used to be a hard‑luck man Boots always set to run away Now I’m counting every minute, then Chasing the sun just to see your face I tried to play it cool, keep my hands still Tried to hold back the rush of the thrill But you walked through my hard day, clear and real Like a fire lighting up the hill If you leave, take the hurt with you Leave me one small vow to hold I’ve been broken, I’ve been foolish, true But I’m all in now, I’m all told Love got me good, love got me lost Love made me sing what I never had Love got me high, love got me crossed Turned my whole world into a back road sad Love got me right, love kept me awake Kept my tired heart up all night, no lie Every word I say, I mean it, I swear You’re the reason I’m here, under this sky
