My Good Enough

Lyrics

Time was a currency I thought that I should save.
Time was a currency, and I was being brave
By never spending never-ending days with you.
I bartered my fluency in romantic tongues.
I bartered my fluency for throwin you some crumbs
Of lovin words that I should have learned to say to you.
My good enough wasn’t good enough to let you know
That your good enough was good enough not to let go.

Touch was a holiday I never thought to take.
Touch was a holiday, and I was gonna wait
Just a moment for a moment more relaxed with you.
Babe, you were underpaid for the job you took.
Babe you were underpaid, and I felt like a crook
Because when you were golden, I was holdin back on you.
My good enough wasn’t good enough to let you know
That your good enough was good enough not to let go.

Good enough to one day marry. Good enough to try.
So damn good that I chose to bury what I should have cried

Love was collateral worth its weight in pain.
Love was collateral that I meant to exchange
For a handsome sum, and that day was comin up.
Babe, I would bet it all, I’d throw it to the wind.
Babe I would bet it all, should you come again
Because I loved you, dear, more than the fear of love.
My good enough wasn’t good enough to let you know
That your good enough was good enough not to let go.
