When It's Good

Ben Harper

You're a prison I can't escape
You're a decision that I'll never make
Heard me laughin'
You let me weep and moan
Oh when it's good
It's so so good
(So)
When it's gone
It's gone
They say that time will kill the pain
An' I say that pain is gonna kill my time
Lord won't you save me or leave me alone?
'Cause when it's good
It's so so good
(So)
An' when it's gone
It's gone
Oh gone
I hang your picture right above my mind
Don't do anything you can't deny
I could never be your pawn
(Never, never be your pawn)

Oh 'cause when it's good
It's so so good
(So)
An' when it's gone
It's gone
Well some drink to remember, some to forget
Some for satisfaction an' some to regret
(Ohh)
I hope a brighter day to you I've shown
([incomprehensible])
Oh 'cause when it's good
It's so so good
(So)
An' when it's gone
It's gone
When it's gone
It's gone
When it's gone
It's gone
When it's gone
It's gone
