Another restless night For me to realize I was misguided by her beauty Blindsided by her eyes She walked into my arms And I could not let go I was a fool in love The first to fall The last to know Now someday I'll fall in love again But I don't know if And I can't say when We had a good thing goin' A fool in paradise Now I'm living my freedom Now that she is out of my life This is my celebration This is my victory song We had a good thing going Now she's just A good thing gone She's just a good thing gone She's just a good thing gone She's just a good thing gone Fighting tooth and nail Down in old town square Every passerby Wonders why and stops to stare Is this the way it goes Is this the way it ends Are you gonna laugh at me And say that we can still be friends Out of luck and out of time Sometimes passion Ain't worth the crime We had a good thing goin' A fool in paradise Now I'm living my freedom Now that she is out of my life This is my celebration This is my victory song We had a good thing going Now she's just A good thing gone Nothing but a good thing Nothing but a good thing gone Nothing but a good thing Nothing but a good thing gone We had a good thing goin' A fool in paradise Now I'm living my freedom Now that she is out of my life This is my celebration This is my victory song We had a good thing going Now she's just A good thing gone She's just a good thing gone She's just a good thing gone She's just a good thing Nothing but a good thing Nothing but a good thing gone Nothing but a good thing Nothing but a good thing gone
