[Verse 1] your now tuned into the digital architek bringing peace love and light energy You were humming in my kitchen Bare feet on the faded tile Coffee steam and Sunday sunlight I just stared, but never smiled You were tracing little circles On my worn-out flannel sleeve Told me, “Baby, I am trying” I just laughed and watched you leave [Chorus] I let a good woman get away Now every night I feel the replay All of your love, all of my pride Crashing together in my mind I let a good woman get away Name in my throat that I can’t say Praying for one more ordinary day But the good woman’s gone Yeah, the good woman’s gone [Verse 2] You were tickets on the counter I was “maybe,” you were “go” You were flowers in the hallway I walked past like I ain’t know You were thunder in a teacup I was quiet in a storm You were reaching through my darkness I kept calling that my “norm” [Pre-Chorus] Now I drink with all the shadows Talk big, but I’m just small Every silence in this house now Screams your name across the wall (oh) [Chorus] I let a good woman get away Now every night I feel the replay All of your love, all of my pride Crashing together in my mind I let a good woman get away Hands to my face, I start to shake Trading your heart for my old mistakes Now the good woman’s gone Yeah, the good woman’s gone (hey) [Bridge] [snare roll swelling, tempo pushing] Wish I’d held you in that doorway Wish I’d cracked instead of stone Wish I’d said the words you needed Now I shout them to my phone You’re a halo in the headlight You’re the color in the smoke You’re the question that keeps burning In the lie I always spoke [Chorus] I let a good woman get away Echoes of you under my skin Every road I take turns to your street But the door won’t let me in I let a good woman get away Voices like a choir in my brain Calling my name, calling my name While you’re walking from my flame [Outro] [climax guitar outro, choir rising] Good woman, gone (gone, gone) Good woman, gone (oh, oh) I was blind in the bright of your love Now I see, but you’re already gone Good woman, gone Good woman, gone ghost
