He Was Too Good To Me/since You Stayed Here Lyrics - Some People's Lives - Bette Midler

He was too good to me 

How will I get along now? 

So close he stood to me 

Everything seems all wrong now 

He would have brought me the sun 

Making me smile, that was his fun 

When I was mean to him 

He'd never say, "Go away, now" 

I was a queen to him 

Who's gonna light my way now? 

It's only natural that I'm blue 

He was too good to be true 

You'd never recognize the room 

The pictures all have different frames now 

And all the chairs are rearranged now 

Somehow, I've thrown out every souvenir 

Yes, there've been changes made 

Since you stayed here 

You'd never recognize the street 

The neighbor's kids play different games now 

The colors in the trees have changed now 

Strange how I've hardly thought of you this year 

Yes, there've been changes made 

Since you stayed here 

The same address, the more or less 

More happens, less matters, I guess 

You'd never recognize my life 

The party-givers know my name now 

And when I cry it's not the same now 

Somehow, I never waste a single tear 

Yes, there've been changes made 

Since you stayed here 

You'd never recognize the room 

You'd never recognize
