Not a Bad Thing
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.
Said all I want from you is to see you tomorrow
And every tomorrow
Maybe you'll let me borrow your heart
And is it too much to ask for every Sunday?
And while we're at it
Throw in every other day to start
I know people make promises all the time
Then they turn right around and break them
When someone cuts your heart open with a knife
Now you're bleeding
But I could be that guy to heal it over time
And I won't stop until you believe it
'Cause, baby, you're worth it
So don't act like it's a bad thing
To fall in love with me
'Cause you might fuck around
And find your dreams come true with me
Spend all your time and your money
Just to find out that my love was free
So don't act like it's a bad thing
To fall in love with me, me
It's not a bad thing to fall in love with me, me
Now, how about I'd be the last voice
You hear tonight?
And every other night for the rest of the nights
That there are
Every morning I just wanna see you staring back at me
'Cause I know that's a good place to start
I know people make promises all the time
Then they turn right around and break them
When someone cuts your heart open with a knife
Now you're bleeding
Don't you know that I could be that guy to heal it over time?
And I won't stop until you believe it
'Cause, baby, you're worth it
So don't act like it's a bad thing
To fall in love with me
'Cause you might fuck around
And find your dreams come true with me
Spend all your time and your money
Just to find out that my love was free
So don't act like it's a bad thing
To fall in love with me, me
It's not a bad thing to fall in love with me, me
(No such a bad thing to fall in love with me)
No, I won't fill your mind with broken promises
And waste of time
And if you fall
You'll always land right in these arms
These arms of mine
Don't act like it's a bad thing
To fall in love with me
'Cause you might fuck look around
And find your dreams come true with me
Spend all your time and your money
Just to find out that my love was free
So don't act like it's a bad thing
To fall in love with me, me
It's not a bad thing to fall in love with me, me
(Not such a bad thing to fall in love with me)
