I really ought to know by now
That all good things turn to bad
The ones who make me happy,
Turn around and make me sad
Todd, he made me smile
He made me want to live instead of die
I asked him a simple question
He turned around and lied
Tess made me feel invincible
She made me feel so strong
I thought she'd be forever
But things are different, now she's gone
Laura was always there
Reached out her hand for me to hold
Somewhere along the line things changed
And her gentle touch turned cold
You see the good things in my life
They are never here to stay
To their word no one stays true
One day they are there, the next they've gone away
All the ones who give me hope
The ones who make me believe
All the ones who make me happy
Sooner or later, they all leave
