Good Things
Navigating Heartbreak: Finding Hope in 'Good Things' by Jay Glavany
Lyrics
It's kinda sad you not the one, no
Expressing sadness that the person addressed is not the chosen one
You were the one that adored me (Baby, baby)
Acknowledging that the person used to adore the speaker
And you were someone that I loved too (Someone that I loved too)
Affirming that there was reciprocal love for the addressed person
I could truly trust you (Trust you)
Emphasizing trust in the addressed person
I feel like I don't trust myself, myself
Expressing a lack of self-trust
I don't believe in myself, myself
Stating a lack of belief in oneself
I know you don't deserve this pain, that I go through (That I go through)
Recognizing that the addressed person doesn't deserve the pain endured by the speaker
My sanity left my brain too (Left my brain too)
Indicating a loss of sanity in the speaker's mind
I hope there's something that I can do, yeah
Expressing a hope for a solution or resolution
All I gotta say
Introduction to the theme of the song
Good things come in due time
Stating the belief that good things come at the right time
All I gotta say
Reiteration of the idea that good things come in due time
Good things come in due time, yeah
Emphasizing again that good things come in due time
All I gotta say
Repeating the message that good things come in due time
Good things come in due time, yeah
Final repetition of the belief that good things come in due time
All I gotta say
Concluding the statement that good things come in due time
Good things come in due time
Reiteration of the idea that good things come at the right time
(Break it down)
Break in the song
You know... lately, I
Introducing a reflection on recent feelings
I don't really feel like things are the same
Expressing a sense of change or unease in the speaker's life
But... but I don't know what I'm supposed to do
Expressing confusion about the appropriate course of action
I mean... I don't know
Indicating uncertainty about the situation
Maybe I'm just overthinking things
Suggesting the possibility of overthinking the situation
But you're just not yourself when you're around me anymore
Observing a change in the addressed person's behavior
I don't know...I don't know
Expressing uncertainty about the observed change
Yeah, yeah, yeah (Yeah, yeah)
Repetition for emphasis
Tell me where it all went wrong (All went wrong)
Prompting a reflection on where things went wrong
Thought what we had was strong (Was strong)
Expressing a belief in the strength of the past relationship
I guess it's hard to know the truth, yeah (Yeah, yeah)
Acknowledging the difficulty in discerning the truth
I know I made mistakes
Admitting to making mistakes
Tell me it's not too late
Seeking reassurance that it's not too late to change
I could change my ways for you
Expressing a willingness to change for the addressed person
And baby lately
Highlighting the recent challenges in the relationship
It's been hard to get through, yeah
Expressing difficulty in coping with the current situation
I get ahead of myself
Admitting to getting ahead of oneself
I've been trynna breakthrough, yeah
Expressing efforts to overcome challenges
And all I can say
Repeating the belief that good things come in due time
Good things come in due time, yeah
Reiteration of the idea that good things come at the right time
All I can say
Final repetition of the belief that good things come in due time
Good things come in due time
Concluding the statement that good things come in due time
