Good Man
(India Arie)
I remember the first day I met you
We were so young
You were a blessing
There was no guessing, you were the one
Love was so crazy
We had a baby and said our vows
That’s when you told me
Should anything happen, I can hear you now
You told me if the sun comes up and I’m not home, be strong
If I’m not beside you, do your best to carry on
Tell the kids about me when they’re old enough to understand
Tell them that their daddy was a good man
First anniversary
Remember we, choose a star
But as I stand under it, I can’t help but wonder
If you see it where you are
For whatever reason, we don’t see the seasons change again
Go there with peace of mind
We’ll meet on the other side
Cause true love don’t end, baby
If the sun comes up and you’re not home, I’ll be strong
If you’re not beside me I’ll do my best to carry on
I’ll tell the kids about you when they’re old enough tounderstand
I’ll tell that their daddy was a good man
Two eyes looking up at me
Pointing to the picture
Like where is he?
Mama are you okay?
And what did the paper say to make you cry that way?
It said your daddy lived with you and your daddy died with you
And I’ll do the same,
Now baby if the sun comes up and I’m not home, be strong
If I’m not beside you, do your best to carry on
Tell your kids about me when they’re old enough to understand
Tell that your daddy was a good man, a good man
