jason isbell - good while it lasted lyrics

[verse 1]
you’re like sleep, take what i can get
but i’ve gotta make some sense of this, so here the f_ck i sit
at 3 a.m., trying way too hard
to find the words to slow my sweet, addicted heart

[verse 2]
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

[chorus?]
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

[verse 3]
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

[verse 4]
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
[chorus]
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

[verse 5]
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

[bridge]
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

[chorus]
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

[verse 6]
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
