good

her eyes invade my thoughts
still caught between my lips
her fingertips drive nails
into my spine i'm paralyzed

she's sifting through my words
encouraged by a slip
of my tongue untied i'm 
so tried and true i'm too vulnerable 
for my own good
i've never known anything 
so good, so far

i have hovered up above her calling
and it's only love of longing
i'm falling for so far
so good

here i stand my ground
down here where i fell
to hell and back i've been
turned outside in i'm too penitent

for my own good
i've never known anything so good
i've never known anything so good
so far, so good
