Good Thing

Fine Young Cannibals

The one good thing in my life has gone away
I don't know why.
She's gone away
I don't know where
somewhere I can't follow her.
The one good thing didn't stay too long

my back was turned and she was gone.

Good thing
where have you gone ?
My good thing
you've been gone too long.

People say I should forget
there's plenty more
don't get upset.
People say she's doin' fine
mutual friends I see sometimes.
That's not what I want to hear
I want to hear she wants me near.

Good thing
where have you gone ?
My good thing
you've been gone too long.

The one day she came back I was so happy that I didn't ask

morning came into my room
caught me dreaming like a fool.

Good thing
my good thing
my my my my good thing

where have you gone ?
My good thing
my good thing
good thing
girl
where have you gone ?
It's been so long.
