Good Thing Going

It started out like a song
We started quiet and slow
With no surprise
And then one morning I woke
To realize
We had a good thing going
Its not that nothing went wrong:
Some angry moments, of course
But just a few
And only moments, no more
Because we knew
We had this good thing going
And if I wanted too much
Was that such
A mistake
At the time?
You never wanted enough—
All right, tough
I dont make
That a crime
And while its going along
You take for granted some love
Will wear away
We took for granted a lot
But still I say:
It could have kept on growing
Instead of just kept on
We had a good thing going
Going, gone
