Lyrics

Real Good Thing

Words & Music by Dave Nachmanoff


Fresh cup of coffee in the morning, that’s a good thing
Sitting in the kitchen in the early morning light
Loving in the afternoon sun, that’s a good thing
Or the rhythm of your breathing as we fall asleep at night

CHORUS:

It’s a good thing you’re with me
You’re the one who wears my ring
We’ve come a long way together
And that’s a real good thing, yeah that’s a real good thing

The touch of your hand on my shoulder, that’s a good thing
When the world feels so heavy and you lighten up my soul
The way we can talk with our eyes, that’s a good thing
It’s like a language that we use or like a lover’s secret code

(Chorus)

Bridge:

I know it’s hard, sharing your life with a dreamer
But I’ve been lucky, and a lot of my dreams have come true
Even when I have doubted myself, you’ve been a believer
But my most important dream was to be part of your dreams too

(Chorus)
