Andrew Peterson - Love Is A Good Thing lyrics

It knocked me down, it dragged me out
It left me there for dead
It took all the freedom I wanted
And gave me something else instead
It blew my mind, it bled me dry
It hit me like a long goodbye
And nobody here knows better than I
That it's a good thing

Love is a good thing
It'll fall like rain on your parade
Laugh at the plans that you tried to make
It'll wear you down till
Your heart just breaks and it's a good thing
Love is a good thing

It'll wake you up in the middle of the night
It'll take just a little too much
It'll burn you like a cinder 'till
You're tender to the touch
It'll chase you down, and swallow you whole
It'll make your blood run hot and cold
Like a thief in the night
It'll steal your soul
And that's a good thing love is a good thing

It'll follow you down to the
Ruins of the great divide
Open the wounds that you tried to hide
There in the rubble of the heart that died
You'll find a good thing
'Cause love is a good thing
Oh, love is a good thing

Ooo, take cover ooo, the end is near
Ooo, take cover but do not fear
Do not fear

'Cause it'll break your will
It'll change your mind
Loose all the chains of the ties that bind
And if you're lucky, you'll never
Make it out alive, and that's a good thing
Love is a good thing

It can hurt like a blast from a hand grenade
When all that used to matter is blown away
There in the middle of the mess it made
You'll find a good thing
Yes, it's worth every penny of
The price you pay it's a good thing
Love is a good thing (Ooo, take cover)
Love is a good thing (Ooo, the end is near)
Oh, love is a good thing (Ooo, take cover)
Do not fear
