Good Enough Songtext

von Darren Hayes

If I woke up late couldn't get out of bed
If I bought you a cafe latte instead
If I lied when I said 32 inches was the size of my waist
And can I admit everyone once in a while
Even though I dig alternative style
Occasionally, I can be caught dancing to Britney
Can I confess that Arthouse doesn't turn me on
But I like every single thing that Spielberg's done
Could I be good enough?
Could I be good enough?
If the going got worse and the worse got rough
The days became endless and harder than tough
I'd be good enough
Better than best, would be simply to be good enough
If everything I give doesn't seem like a lot
If it's all that I got
Baby, tell me that could be good enough

Where I grew up the rent was cheap
But we always had enough to eat
Didn't have fancy clothes
I never really cared 'cause there were shoes on my toes
And motherly love, I knew it like the back of my hand
She always had a way to make me understand

I could be good enough
I could be good enough
If the going got worse and the worse got rough
The days became endless and harder than tough
I'd be good enough
Better than best, would be simply to be good enough
If everything I give doesn't seem like a lot
If it's all that I got
Baby, tell me that could be good enough

'Cause I don't know which way this road is gonna turn
But I know it's gonna be fine
But there are some days, no matter how much it works
That the road gets tough and I don't feel good enough
And if you give me some of that loving
Could you pass some over
Let me cry on your soul
And tell me baby
I could be good enough for you

If I lost my job and my hair fell out
If I made no sense and I scream and shout
Would you laugh and never take a word I say seriously
When I'm out in the cold waiting in the back of a line
Too afraid to drop my name for fear of decline

Could you tell me I'm good enough?
Could I be good enough?
If the going got worse and the worse got rough
The days became endless and harder than tough
I'd be good enough
Better than best, would be simply to be good enough
If everything I give doesn't seem like a lot
If it's all that I got
Baby, tell me that could be good enough

I need to know that I can be good enough
'Cause everybody wants to feel good enough
HO, yeah, oh right now,
Show me baby
Tell me
Come on and prove it baby
Give it to me
