Lyrics

You Were Always Good to Me
Lyrics by Paul Dempsey/California

(v1)
You were always good to me
Something I didn’t always see
You were stern yet fair
With a terrifying stare
You knew things I didn’t know

(v2)
You knew it was cold out there
You wanted me to be aware
To learn how to stay warm
Be ready for a sudden storm
Should ill winds begin to blow

(chorus)
I didn’t always like your direction
But you never allowed objections
And as I’ve gotten older
I know it was for my own protection
And now I can really see
You were always good to me

Instrumentalpart

(bridge)
Life can be cold sometimes
But sometimes the sun shines
And I’ve learned to trust myself
I’m like everyone else
Just trying to get by

(v3)
You taught me listening had value
And that perception did too
Now I watch and I listen
There is little I’m missing
I never just comply

(chorus)
I didn’t always like your direction
But you never allowed objections
And as I’ve gotten older
I know it was for my own protection
And now I can really see
You were always good to me
