Slowly

Slowly

Good Riddance
(album: Ballads From The Revolution)

She called me up all excited said she had a date
With him Saturday night and she just can´t wait
I thought about his reputation & the things that he´s done
I woudn´t wish him on anyone
I said to her when you´re with him better watch your step
Because I know this boy he´s got a pretty bad rep
I only hope he doesn t end up bringing you down
He´s been breaking hearts all over town
Slowly you can pick yourself back up
When that situation´s got you down again
Slowly you can pick your self back up
Girl you´ve got to save it for another day
Because you don´t need him anyway
It´s just a game they play
I know this won´t come easy girl
I know that it´s hard
And deep down inside it leaves an awful scar
And to say I told you so
Won´t help to ease the pain inside you so
Just remember that there´s plenty of boys out there
Who could treat you much better
And remember I care
it just won´t do to see you hurting so bad
I knew that boy was going to leave you sad
