Nick Jaina You Were So Good To Me lyrics

(feat. Jolie Holland)

Oliver, tell the driver that
I'm not ready yet
And I'll never be
I'll only stand
For the congressmen
If they'll sing to me

The flashbulbs burst
As they stop the hearse
They quote a bible verse
And then they act their worst
Your face is hid
Behind the coffin lid
But you still sing to me

All the words I say
Come out the wrong side of my mouth
But it's okay
Oh God it better be

Cuz you were so
So
So good to me
You were so
So
So good to me


The chairman went
With the president
To cast off Lent
Over Creme de menthe
While I stand and sway
On such a perfect day
It's such a perfect day

All the words I write
I only write to bring you close
And all the fits I throw
I only throw to get another dose
What would I gain
To cut the rhyme from your refrain?
And now it's plain
As anyone could ever see

You were so
So
So good to me
You were so
So
So good to me
