I WAS NOT GOOD ENOUGH

Folder: 
COUNTRY POEMS

          I really hope you have a clue.

          All the things I did do for you.

          Yeah, it's true.

          I was there for you every time that you did cry.

            every time you felt you were going to die.



            I was not good enough.



       It was about you, that I really, really, did care.

       A life I wanted to to share.

       A home, a feeling of never being alone.

       I, a husband, and you a wife.



        I was not good enough for you.



       You stabbed it to dead, with a knife.

       You shot it several holes with a machine gun.

       All the thoughts in my head, as I lay in bed.

       It is not for me, you see, any fun.

       It's not accomplishing my goals.



          I was not good enough for you.



        You ran it over with your car.  

        You said we were'nt going far.

        You ran it over with your truck.  

        You said I was out of luck.  

    

           I was not good enough for yop.



     A great trip by plane or train.

     To end something so good seems insane.

     It is really a pain.

     We're at the end of the line.  

     It's really not fine.



              I was not good enough for you.



        I guess it's true.

        There's nothing else to do.

        We have to say goodbye.

        We don't need to ask why.

        I know you will cry and I will cry too.  

        Yes, it's true.

        

                I was not good enough for you.



        You may want to try once more.

        You'll say the past we can ignore.

        We can open up a door.

        I will say we have there before.

    

         Oh, it was not good enough for you.

         Yeah, it was not good enough for you.
