Good Lover

How did I figure I was gonna drive home like that?
So I parked on the highway and slipped one hand on a baseball bat
That was back when I knew what to call it
That was back when she still would'a fought me for it

But it's over now
I had a good run but I lucked it out
The neighbors clocked it and they know I been cleanin' out
That tiny house
Where we could settle for each other
If I was a good lover
If I was a good lover
If I was a good lover

How did we both get so damn old so fast?
From a basement apartment to a time I can't seem to sleep in past?
That was back when I ain't have much to sing about
Way back when I wrote a thousand songs no one cared about

But it's over now
We had a good run but I lucked it out
The neighbors clocked it and then we were cleanin' out
That tiny house
Where we were gonna settle for each other
If I was a good lover
If I was a good lover
If I was a good lover
If I was a good lover
If I was a good lover
If I was a good lover
If I was a good lover
If I was a good lover
