Good Enough

lyrics

Paint the scene
it's Monday night I want you next to me.
I'm thinkin' it would be just fine to clear my mind and leave the hard stuff up to you, but still
My eyes only see what they want to, reality taunts them
I know there's still something real inside.

Woah-oh-oh
I'm not as clever as you think I am
Woah-oh-oh
You're not the brilliant one I thought you were
We're not the perfect ones we're sure we are
But we're good enough for now.
I am good enough for now.

Then it strikes,
as I romanticize I pay the price.
I know the feeling is what keeps me there
a vice I'll leave without any despair, and still
my eyes only see what they want to
reality makes a mess of them,
I know there's something real inside.

Woah-oh-oh
I'm not as clever as you think I am
Woah-oh-oh
You're not the brilliant one I thought you were
We're not the perfect ones we're sure we are
But we're good enough for now.
I am good enough for now.
