Love Is A Good Thing - Andrew Peterson

It knocked me down, it dragged me out, it left me there for dead

It took all the freedom I wanted and gave me something else instead

It blew my mind, it bled me dry, it hit me like a long goodbye

And nobody here knows better than I that it’s a good thing

Love is a good thing

It’ll fall like rain on your parade

Laugh at the plans that you tried to make

It’ll wear you down till your heart just breaks

And it’s a good thing

Love is a good thing

It’ll wake you up in the middle of the night, it’ll take just a little too much

It’ll burn you like a cinder till you’re tender to the touch

It’ll chase you down, and swallow you whole, it’ll make your blood run hot and

cold

Like a thief in the night it’ll steal your soul, and that’s a good thing

Love is a good thing

It’ll follow you down to the ruin of your great divide

Open the wounds that you tried to hide

And there in the rubble of the heart that died

You’ll find a good thing

Cause love is a good thing

Oh love is a good thing

Ooo, take cover

Ooo, the end is near

Ooo, take cover

But do not fear

Do not fear

Cause it’ll break your will, it’ll change your mind

Loose all the chains of the ties that bind

If you’re lucky you’ll never make it out alive, and that’s a good thing

Love is a good thing

It can hurt like a blast from a hand grenade

When all that used to matter is blown away

There in the middle of the mess it made you’ll find a good thing

Yes, it’s worth every penny of the price you pay.

It’s a good thing

Love is a good thing --(Ooo, take cover,)

Love is a good thing --(Ooo, the end is near,)

Oh love is a good thing --(Ooo, take cover.)

Do not fear
