The Staves - Good Woman Lyrics

Will you say what you want
And you never go back
My song is a song
Even buried in the black
Well, I cover my mouth
And I straighten my back
Well, I cover my mouth
And I straighten my back

I'm a good woman
I'm a good woman
Be kind
I'm a good woman

Erased in the light
I feel like a fool
'Cause a game isn't fun
If I never know the rules
And you're measuring out
Becoming of cruel
And you say what you say
And you send me away
Now you only like

I'm a good woman
I'm a good woman

Surrender is sweet
Forgiveness divine
But who will build statues of me
When I leave you all behind
And I'm carrying weight
But I know it's not mine
With half a heart it's hard to stop
But I feel as though

I'm a good woman
I'm a good woman
I'm a good, good woman (come on)
I'm a good woman

I'm a good woman
I'm a good woman
I'm a good, good woman
I'm a good woman
