Good Things Lyrics
Said some things I ain't proud of
I wish I could take back
Never meant to make you hurt like that, no
For a while it was perfect
You made my world standstill
Oh, and something 'bout you always will
[Chorus]
So when it's late at night and you're still wide awake
If you're with your friends or you're lonely
When you hear somebody start to say my name
Oh, when you think of me
I hope you think good things
[Post-Chorus]
I hope you think, think good things
I hope you think, think good things
I hope you
[Verse 2]
Picture that night in Portland
We drank three bottles of wine
I said I love you 'bout a million times
And then we drove to Seattle
And just to kiss in the rain
Now when it's pourin', do you see my face?
So when it's late at night and you're still wide awake
If you're with your friends or you're lonely (You're lonely)
When you hear somebody start to say my name
Oh, when you think of me
I hope you think good things
[Post-Chorus]
I hope you think, think good things
I hope you think, think good things
I hope you
[Bridge]
Think of the way that I started to shake when I held you for the first time
And every kiss that our lips made feel like New Year's Eve at midnight
Think of the 3 A.M. conversations, all of the big dreams that we were chasin' down
And if I ever cross your mind somehow
[Chorus]
When it's late at night and you're still wide awake
If you're with your friends or you're lonely
When you hear somebody start to say my name
Oh, when you think of me
I hope you think good things

Dan Smyers:
“Good Things” was actually the first song that we ever wrote on Zoom, which is crazy to say. We wrote that on Zoom with a couple of friends of ours, Ashley Gorley, Jason Evigan, and Ross Copperman. It brought us back to the old days of when we moved to Nashville, writing with just an acoustic guitar. Somebody has a title or a concept and you start writing down words and coming up with melodies, rather than what it’s evolved to where there’s a fully produced track that happens first. Nothing against that, we love doing that too, but it just brought us back to basics and allowed us to really focus on the words and the narrative of the song.
