Lyrics Good for You - Dessa

Good for You

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
