Lyrics
A long time forgotten are dreams that just fell by the way
And the good life he promised is not what she′s living today
But she never complains of the bad times or the bad things he’s done
She just talks about the good times they′ve had and all the good times to come
She’s a good hearted woman in love with a good timin’ man
And she loves him in spite of his ways that she don′t understand
And through teardrops and laughter
They′ll pass though this world hand in hand
This good hearted woman in love with her good timin’ man
Well, now he likes the night life, the bright lights and good timin′ friends
And when the party’s all over she′ll welcome him back home again
Though she don’t understand him but she does the best that she can
Now this good hearted woman in love with her good timin′ man
She’s a good hearted woman in love with a good timin’ man
And she loves him in spite of his ways that she don′t understand
And through teardrops and laughter
They′ll pass though this world hand in hand
This good hearted woman in love with her good timin’ man
She′s a good hearted woman in love with a good timin’ man
And she loves him in spite of his ways that she don′t understand
