Good Intentions (Letra)

Curso de Violão - Fórmula Violão

I got something to say
A confession of me
I’ve been led astray
Tried so hard to change
But I’m set on my ways
My words mean nothing again

I promised I’d be good
But I can’t help myself from these temptations
When they come, there’s nothing I can do
I promised I’d be good
The road to hell is paved with good intentions
So when I fall, I will fall to you

I promised I’d be good
I promised I’d be good

I just couldn’t resist
It was the moment of bliss
I know it’s hard to forgive
It’s too late for changes
All this time I’ve wasted
Words mean nothing, nothing again

I promised I’d be good
But I can’t help myself from these temptations
When they come, there’s nothing I can do
I promised I’d be good
The road to hell is paved with good intentions
So when I fall, I will fall to you

I promised I’d be good
I promised I’d be good

I promised I’d be good
But I can’t help myself from these temptations
When they come, there’s nothing I can do
I promised I’d be good
The road to hell is paved with good intentions
So when I fall, I will fall to you

I promised I’d be good
But I can’t help myself from these temptations
When they come, there’s nothing I can do
I promised I’d be good
The road to hell is paved with good intentions
So when I fall, I will fall to you

Good Intentions (Letra)

Curso de Violão - Fórmula Violão

Mama always prayed that i’d be a better man than daddy
And i determined not to let her down
Deserted by the man she loved and left to raise four children
We were the local gossip of the town.

I promised her that i’d live right and not be like the others
But i wound up in jail on chrismas day
I told her i’d be home and not to worry ‘bout my brothers
When i got home my mom had passed away

(chorus)

And i hear tell the road to hell is paved with good intentions
And mama my intentions were the best
There’s lotsa things in my life i just as soon not mention
Looks like i’ve turned out like all the rest
But mama my intentions were the best

A little boy with big blue eyes a-beggin’ to go fishing
I promised him but never took the time
Now they won’t let me see him and i sit here a-wishing
Wishin’ i could hold him one more time

(repeat chorus)

But mama my intentions were the best

Lyrics by: glen phillips

It’s hard to rely on my good intentions
When my head’s full of things that i can’t mention
Seems i usually get things right
But i can’t understand what i did last night

It’s hard to rely on my own good senses
When i miss so much that requires attention
Have to laugh at myself sometimes
And i can see that i’m not blind

There’s little relief
Give us reprieve
For all the things i’ve left behind
I’m positive that i’m not blind

I’m not afraid things won’t get better
But it feels like this has gone on forever
You have to cry with your own blue tears
Have to laugh with your own good cheer

It’s hard to rely on my good intentions
When my head’s full of things that i can’t mention
Seems i usually get things right
But i can’t understand what i did last night

There’s little relief
Give us reprieve
Imagining the world outside
I’m positive that i’m not blind

I can’t be hard on you
‘cause you know i’ve been there too
Learned a lot of things from you

But life gives little relief
Give us reprieve
And when everyone is cold as ice
I clinch my fists and close my eyes
Imagining the world outside
But i can see that i’m not blind

It’s a sunny day in california
But that old sun it’s shining on me right here at home
It’s one of those days
When those great ideas they just seem to fall out on you
And they always fall the greatest when you’re falling all alone
It makes for a good day for some serious reflection
And massive rationalization
For contemplating the future of the future
And the last of the past
And wondering if you could ever forgive me darling
All the trouble that i put to you
And if i could forget all those questions
That i never asked
And if i could forgive
The temporary weight gain due to excess water retention
I could forgive the rest too
It’s just a fact of life
That no one cares to mention
She wasn’t good
But she had good intentions

So the grass it grows
When the sun it shines
And my face it glows
When the woman’s mine
And you say i’m a fool-around
Honey that may be true
But i’d sooner fool around
Than be a fool for a fool
And if i could forgive
The unadulterated adulterating apprehension
I could forgive the rest too
It’s just a fact of life
That no one cares to mention
She wasn’t good
But she had good intentions

So i’m twenty-six and rising
Still too young to live
But too low to go
I guess it’s the process
Of learning to excess
All of those things
That you already know
And if i could forgive
The honey-i-swear-it-didn’t-mean-a-thing-to-me
Attempt at abstention
I could forgive the rest too
It’s just a fact of life
That no ones cares to mention
She wasn’t good
But she had good intentions
