Too Good
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Why do we make the simplest things so hard?
I bought you breakfast and you started your rings
The air was fragrant and thick with our silence
I held my breath as something deep inside pinched
I touched the bump on your wrist you were born with
Watching you trying to push away
It hurts when you see it coming
You're too proud to tell me that you care
Watching you trying to push away
It hurts when you see it coming
Never use your words to show you care
I think you know it
Too cool to show it
Babe, you're so good
You're too good to be true
I think you know it
Too cool to show it
Babe, you're so good
You're too good to be true
Oh, ooh
Why do we make the simplest things so hard?
I let my pain out through the way that I sit
And start to pick at the rips in my Nikes
You quote Thom Yorke and lean in for a quick kiss
But still you just won't admit that you like me
Watching you lower both your eyes
It hurts when you know it's over
Still too stubborn to show that you care
Watching you lower both your eyes
It hurts when you know it's over
I feel like you never really cared
I think you know it
Too cool to show it
Babe, you're so good
You're too good to be true
I think you know it
Too cool to show it
Babe, you're so good
You're too good to be true (ooh)
I think you know it
Too cool to show it
Babe, you're so good
You're too good to be true
I think you know it
Too cool to show it
Babe, you're so good
You're too good to be true
Ooh
Why do we make the simplest things so hard?
Ooh
Why do we make the simplest things so hard?
Ooh
Sunspots in your eyes, dark green
You still mean the world to me
Ooh
Why do we make the simplest things so hard?
Why do we make the simplest things so hard?
