Letra de Good While It Lasted - Jason Isbell

You're like sleep, take what I can get

But I've gotta make some sense of this, so here the fuck I sit

At 3 a.m., trying way too hard

To find the words to slow my sweet, addicted heart

You're like sleep, I can't get near enough

And I pretend that I don't need you when I'm out doing stuff

Went so deep, a lucky young man's dream

And last time I tried this sober, I was seventeen

And all that I needed was all that I had

It was good while it lasted

You let me kiss you on Broadway in a black Cadillac

And it was good while it lasted

Last night I didn't sleep at all, I found another empty wall

And I couldn't get past it

And for a minute in the afternoon, I almost didn't think of you

It was good while it lasted

It's more than real, a plastic universe

And I wanna know your secrets, even when it hurts

You speak so soft, but there's something dark in there

And I think I'll ask for more than just a love affair

You're like sleep, and the nights are adding up

Well, I wish I still smoked cigarettes and acted tough

And all that I had was all that I needed

It was good while it lasted

With your head on my shoulder, my soldiers retreated

It was good while it lasted

A mattress on the palace floor and a light I'd never seen before

And I couldn't get past it

And for a little while this afternoon, I dreamed that I was in your room

And it was good while it lasted

Baby, let me learn from you

How'd you get that shade of blue?

What's it like from where you stand?

Let me hold your steady hand

And all that I wanted was all that I had

And it was good while it lasted

Now I feel like a boy who got caught being bad

And it was good while it lasted

That night you came and stayed with me, painted on my memory

I'll never get past it

I got to hold a piece of you in the evening on the avenue

It was good while it lasted
