"Good For You" lyrics

"Good For You"

Leave... leave me alone again
It's nothing that I'm not used to
I need, need you at home again
I'm trying to understand you
Don't try to know me by the things I done
Words never come out true

If you could see me then you could believe
That I was good for you
And if your love could free me from the things I do
I could be good for you

Heavy sometimes in the back of my mind
For a reason that I know I'd find if I could
But I'm no good
I've lost everyone close to me
I was planning on changing someday
My son, it's been awhile since you heard from me
When I was standing on the top of the world and
I'm gonna get it back if I can
Don't try to know me by the things they say
Words never come out true

If you could see me then you could believe
That I was good for you
And if your love could free me from the things I do
I could be good for you

Heavy sometimes in the back of my mind
For a reason that I know I'd find if I could
But I'm no good
I shut you out of my life but you're never gone
There will always be a voice telling me this ain't wrong
This ain't wrong!
You're everything I want
Everything I need
I could be could be good for you
