You Did A Good Thing

she was your childhood friend
all of your heart you gave her
and though the time has changed her
she’ll always be home
losing yourself you did a good thing
truth never hurt you did a good thing
in spite of yourself you did a good thing
truth will be told you did a good thing
she was your childhood sweetheart
(so understand)
all of this trouble you feel
(time can’t take her from you)
the time won’t take her from you
she’ll always be home …..
and i’ll miss you for the longest time
our lovely view was the best i’ve known
tears on my face have fallen so
so long
there can be no harder way
