We Had A Good Run
As subtle as a changing tide
Like the waves rise on the rocks
Routines and ruts, romance had died
We decided to call it a loss
There’s a lot less wedded bliss
Wouldn’t have guessed
it would end like this
Twenty years and three great kids
-Couldn’t be blessed w/ better gifts
I can question, I can doubt Obsess to figure it out
Or I can accept with gratitude
That I was meant….to marry you
CHORUS:
I can’t lie here in regret (oh no)
I won’t cry now that it’s done
I will smile for both of us (oh yeah)
Cause you and I had a good run
Yeah, you and I had a good run
I’m more like run of the the bulls
I gotta climb that heartbreak hill
I like a life that’s fast and full
You’re alright with the calm and still
Met at the track when we were 12
Opposites attached — 17
Kids having fun,
not knowing ourselves
what work our love would really be
We didn’t know who’d we become
When we started on this path
You can’t dwell on
what it went wrong
If it warms your heart looking back
REPEAT CHORUS
Dropped out of the race
when we hit the wall
No blood, some tears,
plenty of sweat
So many ways that we had it all
Sweet Kids, Good Years,-
we won’t forget
Just ask our two daughters
And and our one son
Despite our troubled waters
We ran a good long run
REPEAT CHORUS
As we crossed our own finish line
We gave high fives and fist bumps
Remembered all the good times
With a lot less rain than sun
And I thank you for this run
