I got the good side of things
Left you with both of the rings
My fingers danced,
And swayed in the breeze,
The change in the wind took you down to your knees
I got the good side of you,
Sent it out into the blue,
The people danced,
To the sound of your heart,
The world sang along to it falling apart
But I sympathise,
And I recognise
Baby, I apologise
That I got the good side
The good side of things
I got the good side of things,
Travelled the universe twice
So many thoughts I wanted to share,
But I didn't call ’cause it wouldn't be fair
Then I got the good side of new
Found arms to fall right into
I know how it looked, it wasn't the plan
And someday I hope that you'll understand
That I sympathise,
And I recognise
Baby, I apologise
That I got the good side
The good side of things
I'm sure we'll meet in the spring
And catch up on everything
I'll say I'm proud of all that you've done
You taught me the ropes, and you taught me to love
But I sympathise,
And I recognise
Baby, I apologise
That I got the good side
The good side of things
Sympathise,
Recognise
Apologise
That I got the good side
The good side of things
