[GUSSIE, spoken]
Anyway, this song is from a little show that they wanna do that we hope will be in a big show that we wanna do.
[CHARLEY, spoken]
In a big show? Frank, what the hell is she talking about?
[FRANK, spoken]
Later. Sing!
[CHARLEY]
It started out like a song
We started quiet and slow
With no surprise
And then one morning I woke
To realize
We had a good thing going
It's not that nothing went wrong:
Some angry moments, of course
But just a few
And only moments, no more
Because we knew
We had this good thing going
And if I wanted too much
Was that such
A mistake
At the time?
You never wanted enough—
All right, tough
I don't make
That a crime
And while it's going along
You take for granted some love
Will wear away
We took for granted a lot
But still I say:
It could have kept on growing
Instead of just kept on
We had a good thing going
Going
Gone
