Good Enough

GOOD ENOUGH

Strange reflections in my bathroom mirror

I see a man that I used to know

I meet the eyes of a stranger I met somewhere

Sometime ago

I finish my second cup of coffee

But still there's no sign of the day

So I walk downtown to the boardwalk cafe

And the sunshine explodes and chases the night away

Sometimes this life sure is killing me

But I ain't got the time to let it pass me by

Is it good enough

Is it what you thought it would be?

It's everything you want

Still there's more than you need

Is it bad enough, have you had enough

Well it's good enough for me

Blood red lipstick on my bedroom mirror

Tells me to go to hell

Another story's blowing down the boulevard

Now there's nothing left to tell

There's nothing in your pocket

There's something up your sleeve

You look right up the alley coming down my street

The sun goes off at midnight

And the whistle blows at dawn

I'll give you everything I've got to carry on

Sometimes this life sure is killing me

But I ain't got the time to let it pass me by

Is it good enough

Is it what you thought it would be?

(...)

The street lights crawl

Into the barebulp hotel

Guess this smokefilled room

Got some stories to tell

Can't get no sleep on this bed of stone

When the devil calls you'd better off alone
