Well, I boxed up those things
You left behind
And I gave 'em to goodwill
Outta sight, outta mind

But it's not working out
Like I hoped that things would
I guess it wouldn't be so bad
If it hadn't been so good

I called up my folks
And told 'em we were through
And I was well along my way
To gettin' over you

I didn't have to say much
'Cause I knew they understood
Yes, it wouldn't be so bad
If it hadn't been so good

All our old friends
They ask how you are
I tell 'em I don't know
And I don't care anymore

But I can't make them believe
No matter how I try
I've gotta learn to forget you
Or learn how to lie

Well, it isn't like love
Never hurt me before
But I always recovered
And came back for more

This time I'm wonderin'
If I even should
Lord, it wouldn't be so bad
If it hadn't been so good

We seemed so perfect from where I stood
And it wouldn't be so bad
If it hadn't been so good
Lord, it wouldn't be so bad
If it hadn't been so good
