Lyrics Not A Bad Thing - Trisha Yearwood

Not A Bad Thing

I’m sittin' in this cafe
People talkin' so loud I can’t hear myself think
That’s not a bad thing
The coffee keeps on coming
The waiter who keeps smilin'
As I’m ridin' on a river of caffeine
An' that’s not a bad thing
I used to feel sorry for someone like me
In a corner booth pretendin' to read on a Friday night
I used to say: «It just ain’t right.»
How could anybody ever have any fun
Without somebody, without someone?
It never dawned on me
The possibility
That it’s not a bad thing
Those naggin' thoughts about you
How I left without you tonight:
You know, they’re few and far between
The waiter’s name is Joey, he told me
And that’s when I noticed he ain’t wearing any ring
An' that’s not a bad thing
And there is a tug on the edge of my heart
It’s you again sayin': «Don't you start lettin' go of me.»
But I ain’t listenin'
For once in my life, I’ll feel what I feel
Let it be, let it be real
Let it flow through me
An' wash me clean
That’s not a bad thing
As I’m drivin' home, I’m thinkin'
The worst might be over
Or maybe I’m a little bit naive
But the street lights seem brighter
As I walk to my front door
And I’m all alone when I turn the key
An' that’s not a bad thing
I used to feel sorry for someone like me
In a corner booth pretendin' to read on a Friday night
I used to say: «It just ain’t right.»
How could anybody ever have any fun
Without somebody, without someone?
It never dawned on me
The possibility
That it’s not a bad thing
