Didn’t Have To Be So Good – Alice Peacock

You’re too far away from me tonight
And I can’t differentiate wrong from right
I hear there’s a moon up in the sky
But I see you in every light
I should’ve turned and walked away
Lived to survive another day
But now you’ve taken half my heart
And it don’t beat when we’re apart

You didn’t have to be so good
You didn’t have to love me all night long
Hold me tight
Play my song
You didn’t have to change my world
From everything I understood
No you didn’t have to be so good

They say wherever there is love there’s a home
But I say a house is just a house when you’re alone
And I’m no comfort to myself
And I don’t want nobody else

You didn’t have to be so good
You didn’t have to love me all night long
Hold me tight
Play my song
You didn’t have to change my world
From everything I understood
No you didn’t have to be so good

This feels like more than chemistry
Some kind of strange magic or ancient alchemy
