A Good Woman

I don't mind, I'd follow you into the gloom
If you asked me to
Tongues are tied, but I still whistle to your every tune
Read the signs, no I'm not afraid to push through the haze
Only you will do
Oh you're worth the time, oh I'm paying for my every mistake
But I know you want me to

Water's pouring down the sides
Dripping off the candle lights

I could tell you a million white lies
I could tell you I'd still be a good woman
I could fake it like all of the other times
But I swear that I'll still be a good woman
I can play fair, I promise to talk nice
And you know that I'll still be your good woman

Hold my hand, oh I'll take you somewhere we've never been
If you let me drive
Quite the man, know I'll cater to your every dream
Cue the dutiful wife

Bite my tongue and grit my teeth
Bow my head so graciously

I could give you my million dollar smile
I could tell you I'll still be a good woman
I can play any part that you design
I declare that I'll still be a good woman
Be in awe of your supercilious mind
And you know that I'll still be your good woman

Underneath the debonair and city noise
I'm no fool, I know where my derision lies
Wrap you up in cotton wool and sweet goodbyes
Hold you close and leave before the dawn arrives

I could tell you a million white lies
I could tell you I'll still be a good woman
I could fake it like all of the other times
But I swear that I'll still be a good woman
I can play fair, I promise to talk nice
And you know that I'll still be your good woman

I could give you my million dollar smile
I could tell you I'd still be a good woman
I can play any part that you desire
I declare that I'll still be a good woman
Be in awe of your supercilious mind
And you know that I'll still be your good woman
