Some Good Thing

Think of this heart as an old accident A hardened hit and run Looking ahead, but just a little scared To keep all eyes on the road Oh, can you be sure? Will this be some good thing? Lucky stars to reckon appear again and again Can you believe all that has brought you here You say, "Come on, baby, let's go ahead and live" Well, who ever knows if love's a sleight of hand Will it hold up to the light And do you ever stop unravelling a happy end With a mind still wound up from a fight? Can it be real? Will it be some good thing Weathering the fortunes What those stars are gonna bring Will it stay true Will we both see the whole thing through? You say, "Come on, baby, let's go ahead and live" Bird on a wire or heart in your hand Looking for a place to find some rest If you batten it down it's not living at all Leaving's just a different kind of death Could you believe? Will it be some good thing A place to lay your head down And the will to look again Could it be true Will we both see the whole thing true You say, "Come on, baby, let's go ahead Come on, baby, let's go ahead Come on, baby, let's go ahead and live" --- Some Good Thing - The Wailin' Jennys
