Lose A Good Thing

[Intro:] Honey, let me tell you... Let me tell you 'bout a good man... [Verse 1] A good man comes around maybe once in a lifetime, Gives you his last, no price tag on his mind, He isn't flashy, don't ask for much, Rather see you smilin' than mess with your love, That's the kind of good you don't leave behind. A protector who keeps you so safe, Never forgets your anniversary dates, Who needs butterflies, When you have this type of guy... [Pre-Chorus] Honey, let me tell you, Let me tell you 'bout a good man, [Chorus] Ohhhhh honey, Don't you watch him walk on by, Don't you let that good love die, He's right there in front of you, Honey, wake up — he's loves truth, He's the one who will honor your ring, Wake up or you'll lose a good thing, [Verse 2] Gentle hands and a patient heart, Real love don't come with a jolt to start, That rush you feel, that fire, that spark, That's just a flicker, burnin' out in the dark, Dizzy ain't the same as safe, baby, Real love doesn't make you crazy, Real love don't shake you, it holds you tight, Safe and secure with all of his might. [Pre-Chorus] Honey, let me tell you, Let me tell you 'bout a good man, [Chorus] Ohhhhh honey, Don't you watch him walk on by, Don't you let that good love die, He's right there in front of you, Honey, wake up — he's loves truth, He's the one who will honor your ring, Wake up or you'll lose a good thing, [Bridge] My Carlos knew my order before he knew my name, Forty-one years, and it never once changed, Same seat, same smile, same steady hand, Ohh Honey, he was a good man, a good man... I still hear him on some quiet days, Still feel him, in a hundred little ways, Open your eyes baby, don't you let him pass, Some good things — some good things don't last. [Final Chorus] Ohhhhh honey, Don't you watch him walk on by, Don't you let that good love die, He's right there in front of you, Honey, wake up — he's loves truth, I'd give anything to have one more day, You have no idea but a crush and love are not the same. He's the one who will honor your ring, Wake up or you'll lose a good thing, [Outro:] You'll lose... Lose a good thing....
