The good people

The good people they came and they said to me,
"we've got something here that we'd like you to see."
it was shining bright, i was blinded by the light
it was truth that they spoke to me that day.
They said, "let the girl go, she could fly like a bird,
she looks more beautiful up in the air.
and if the feeling's strong and the love it lasts that long,
then one day, son, you'll see that love again."
The good people they came and they showed to me
a thousand points of light up in the sky.
they were shining bright, i was blinded by the light
it was truth that they spoke to me that day.
They said, "if you catch a glance of a falling star, by chance,
you might think of love that's died and gone away.
but if the feeling's strong and the love it lasts that long.
then one day, son, you'll see that love again."
Good people give me solidly away.
i live for everything you always say.
but tell me, tell me, where are you tonight.
i've lost the light, i've lost the light
you're dynamite,
i think i might. . .
Step out to the ledge, i keep on looking back.
'cause if i jump again, i'll die on impact.
and if the feeling strong and the love it last that long.
a love like this, it comes down strong one time.
