Lyrics

Good Intentions
(Randall Lee Anderson)

I got home just in time
She was packing her things
She whispered my name
Then she gave back my ring
She said I know you're a good man
And I know you mean well
And I know that you love me
Sometimes it's so hard to tell

You can't build a life on good intentions
You can't make true love from wishes and dreams
I wasted my life on your broken promises
Now your good intentions have gotten the best of me

She said we married young
We made our mistakes
You promised me children
Now it's too late
She said I gave you my best years
You paid no attention
I know you didn't mean to hurt me
You had good intentions

But You can't build a life on good intentions
You can't make true love from wishes and dreams
I wasted my life on your broken promises
Now your good intentions have gotten the best of me
