Good for You - Dessa

I think I could be good for you

I think you’re overlooking your best move

I think I could be good for you

Somewhere beneath the surface you do, too

My lipstick on a candy cigarette

Bored backstage in Boston

If you say so, it’s only innocent

But I can feel that you’re watching

'Cause sometimes when it’s late

You get careless

The bourbon gives you away

And the veil lifts

I don’t bring this up lightly

Don’t you think that I might be

Someone you can’t forget?

But if you don’t think that there’s lightning

At the end of the kite string

I don’t need another friend

I think I could be good for you

I think you’re overlooking your best move

I think I could be good for you

Somewhere beneath the surface you do, too

Bar close, night’s over

But I guess they still let you smoke here

You should go home now with the rest

But your coat’s on my shoulders

No one gets to take both roads

You solve for exes and unknowns

Decide what to keep

And who to release

I’m here with fog in my locket

Your name in my teeth

Patience is no virtue

For saints out after curfew

We should chance it

I can’t stand inertia

Won’t get parachute rehearsals —

Fall for me

Tell me it’s not what you wanted

Honestly?

Well, good for you

I think you’re overlooking your best move

I think I could be good for you

Somewhere beneath the surface you do, too

Aren’t you tired of the upper hand?

Don’t you want a girl to make you try a little now and then

I’m the one who’s talking to you now

Don’t you want to find out

If you can win a bigger bet?

I know I’m one of a hundred you could call like it’s nothing

But not every dime can play dozens

That’s gotta say something —

Not every match gets met

I think I could be good for you

I think you’re overlooking your best move

I think I could be good for you

Somewhere beneath the surface you do, too

I think I could be good for you
