Terri Clark - Not a Bad Thing lyrics

rate me

I'm sittin' in this cafe

People talkin' so loud I can't hear myself think.

That's not a bad thing.

The coffee keeps on coming

The waiter who keeps smilin' as I'm ridin' on a river of caffeine

An' that's not a bad thing.

I used to feel sorry for someone like me

In a corner booth pretendin' to read on a friday night.

I used to say: "it just ain't right."

How could anybody ever have any fun

Without somebodywithout someone?

It never dawned on me

The possibility

That it's not a bad thing.

Those naggin' thoughts about you

How I left without you tonight:

You knowthey're few and far between.

The waiter's name is joeyhe told me

And that's when I noticed he ain't wearing any ring.

An' that's not a bad thing.

And there is a tug on the edge of my heart

It's you again sayin': "don't you start lettin' go of me."

But I ain't listenin'.

For once in my lifeI'll feel what I feel

Let it belet it be real.

Let it flow through me

An' wash me clean.

That's not a bad thing.

As I'm drivin' homeI'm thinkin'

The worst might be over

Or maybe I'm a little bit naive.

But the street lights seem brighter

As I walk to my front door

And I'm all alone when I turn the key.

An' that's not a bad thing.

I used to feel sorry for someone like me

In a corner booth pretendin' to read on a friday night.

I used to say: "it just ain't right."

How could anybody ever have any fun

Without somebodywithout someone?

It never dawned on me

The possibility

That it's not a bad thing.
