[00:00.00]Good While It Lasted - Hayes Carll
[00:06.40]Written by：Darrell Scott/Hayes Carll
[00:12.80]I smoked my last cigarette
[00:15.82]I drank my last drop
[00:18.49]Quit doing all the things
[00:20.66]That I swore I'd never stop
[00:23.93]I changed my direction
[00:26.68]Sang a different tune
[00:29.29]Gave up all those childish ways
[00:32.04]That made me old too soon
[00:34.89]Things were going goodday for a while
[00:40.20]I tried to straighten out the crooked road that I was on
[00:47.02]It was good while it lasted
[00:50.13]But it didn't last too long
[00:57.01]I used to play on Broadway
[01:00.18]The same song every night
[01:03.36]Singing for the tip jar
[01:05.29]Underneath the neon light
[01:08.39]Had a good time with the women
[01:11.29]And the compliments were free
[01:14.05]I dreamed of something bigger
[01:16.33]But it just wasn't meant to be
[01:19.77]But I was happy there for a while
[01:25.19]Just like a desperado out searching for a song
[01:32.04]It was good while it lasted
[01:35.20]But it didn't last too long
[01:39.71]Nothing last forever
[01:42.29]Time knows that it's true
[01:45.25]Sometimes a little while's the best that we can do
[01:54.89]You ended up beside me
[01:57.78]Like some long forgotten dream
[02:01.01]You took my hand and showed me colors
[02:03.93]I had never seen
[02:06.93]We both said forever forever till the end
[02:12.25]But forever's something different
[02:14.44]To a lover than a friend
[02:18.01]We thought we had it all there for a while
[02:23.66]Just like that perfect moment 'fore the darkness turned to dawn
[02:30.69]It was good while it lasted
[02:33.97]But it didn't last too long
[02:38.52]The one thing I can tell from all this life that's come undone
[02:45.01]It was good while it lasted
[02:48.25]But it didn't last too long
[02:50.85]It was good while it lasted
[02:53.88]But it didn't last too long
