Let The Good Things Last A Long Time

For a minute there I thought I was in

But you were the smile that let me down

And now I’m hungry for the reasons why

Cos I ain’t no good at kicking around

I’ve been here one too many times

It’s a merry-go-round I know all too well

But I keep diving on the ocean side

I wish I could step back for a change

And let the good things last a long time

Just let the good things last a long time

Nobody called this an overnight game

You just gotta deal with what you’re dealt

It may not have happened the way you’d have liked

But don’t get all wrapped up in yourself

Just let the good things last a long time

Just let the good things last a long time

Try to remember that it’s never so bad

You don’t need your mother to tell you that

Cos when you’re there and you’re crying out for more

Well it gets easier to forget what you’ve done before

So let the good things last a long time

Just let the good things last a long time
