Let The Goodness In

from Anytime Anywhere by Tret Fure

/

lyrics

I’ve got a mean streak
I like to call her Gin
She only shows herself
When I let the devil in
I’ve walked these mean streets
I’ve had a tough beginning
I’ve learned to look both ways and
Try not to let the devil in

CHORUS: Cause it drives a wedge between my heart
And everything that I hold dear
t drives away the good and leaves me
Drowning in a pool of tears
It drives me to distraction and
Distraction keeps me running thin
I want to let the devil out
And let the goodness in

I’ve got a suitcase
I used to keep it packed
I wanted to make sure
That I could slip out the back
I was a fruit case
I couldn’t face my truths
I’ve learned to look both ways
And try not to let the devil loose

CHORUS:

Surely I can make a difference
Surely I can defend my ways
Still to hope to stand resistant
But keep my wicked wiles at bay

I’ve got a good heart
Just no attention span
I’ll lend the closest ear
At least I think I can
I’ve made a new start
But still I jump the gun
I’ve learned to look both ways and
Try to keep the devil on the run

CHORUS:
