Good Intentions Lyrics - Labelle

You make me wait on you, 

and all I wanna do, 

is get next to you. 

It's just like singing a song, 

holding a note, holding a note, 

that's too high for you. 

I'd like to mention, 

that your good intentions, 

just ain't good enough. 

You said that I could be wrong, 

but every time you come up empty. 

I know that I could be wrong, 

going down, getting it up, 

sure ain't easy.

There's no pretension, 

I'd like to mention, 

that your good intentions, 

just ain't good enough. 

Good intentions, 

sure ain't enough, 

if you can't keep them, 

when the going gets rough. 

Good intentions, 

won't get you by, 

they'll just become, 

another thing undone, 

in your life.

Good intentions, 

sure ain't enough, 

if you can't keep them, 

when the going gets rough. 

Good intentions, 

won't get you by, 

they'll just become, 

another thing undone, 

in your life. 

Never, never, never, 

ever good enough. 

All I wanna do, 

is get next to you. 

I know that I could be wrong, 

but every time you just come up empty.
