Lyrics to Goodtown
Goodtown Video:
Goodtown (Pat Robinson, Jennifer Miller) She lays on the pillow He laid on so many nights Quietly humming their song The children are grown Her body aged and worn He's been gone so very long She remembers when she first saw him So handsome, self assured Now she sleeps alone, usually in pain But tonight she sleeps undisturbed CHORUS There's a stranger in Goodtown tonight Easing the pain of the warriors' fight ... in Goodtown tonight There's a stranger in Goodtown tonight Walking the streets with a heavenly light ... in Goodtown tonight They're married ten years now Seen a lot of hard times No work in this little town She blames him for everything He blames her just the same Seems life just keeps them down He stares out the window, she stares at the floor No happiness here anymore He lifts a hand to touch her, how familiar she feels Tonight, there's love once more BRIDGE The stranger's a legend of long ago Many tales of an angel in sight One peaceful night each year, they say And there's peace in Goodtown tonight The little girl often cries Daddy does the best he can Raising her all alone Her mama's gone Just one of those things She'll understand when she's grown Daddy gives her daffodils, teaches her to dance Nothing he wouldn't do He feels the loneliness, of a broken heart But tonight, he's dancing too
