India Arie Good Man Lyrics

Good Man Lyrics

I remember the first day 
I met you 
we were so young 
you were a blessing 
and there was no guessing 
you were the one 
Love is so crazy 
We had a baby 
and said our vows 
That's when you told me 
should anything happen 
I can hear you now 
You told me 

[Chorus]
if the sun comes up 
and I'm not home 
be strong 
If I'm not beside you 
Do your best to 
carry on 
Tell the kids about me 
when they're old enough to understand 
tell them that their daddy was 
a good man 

First anniversary 
remember we 
chose a star 
And as i stand i'm afraid 
I can't help but wonder if 
You see it where you are 
For whatever reason 
You don't see the seasons 
Change again 
Go there with peace of mind 
We'll meet on the otherside 
Cause true Love don't end 
and baby 

[Chorus]

Two eyes 
looking 
up at me 
Pointing to a picture like where is he 
Mamma are you OK 
What did the paper say 
To make you cry that way 
it said your Daddy lived for you 
and your daddy died for me 
and I'll do the same 

[Chorus]
