Good Intentions

from Bright Blues by Ripe

/

lyrics

You call me crazy in casual conversation I’m wondering what this is about
All accusations while lacking the information But hey maybe you’re just thinking out loud

But wait is it fate?
Is this explosion how the story ends? Or do you need to believe
The detonator is your only friend?

Say we both leave
Both try to work it out
Say you trust me
More than you trust your doubts Say you believe
I'm here to help you out
Got only good intentions

You called me stupid so often feel like I’m losing my mind I mean how this is my fault Promised I’d never let somebody say that to me
Now I’m worried my resolve’s going soft

But wait is it fate?
Or will you always find a bridge to burn?
Do I need to believe
That love is worth the constant hurt?

Say we both leave
Both try to work it out
Say you trust me
More than you trust your doubts Say you believe
I'm here to help you out
Got only good intentions

Say we get buzzed
Quit lying to ourselves
Say we show love
Settle for nothing else
Say you believe
I’m only here to help
Got only good intentions

Back to the Island with a chill up the spine
I guess I guess that this is over the line
If you get tired, I hope you reconcile cuz I’ve
Got only good intentions

You were complaining ‘bout the sun in your eyes
I’m empty feeling with a fifth of July in me
Watching my baby going comfortably blind but I’ve
Got only good intentions

Say we both leave
Both try to work it out
Say you trust me
More than you trust your doubts
Say you believe
I'm here to help you out
Got only good intentions

Hey, can we take it outside?
Name things that keep us alive?
Seems like the story is tired
I guess that this is goodbye.
