On Good Terms Lyrics by Brian Fallon
(Feat. Lori McKenna)

There was glass in the road, there was glass in my teeth
And the bar’s turning lights on, the snow’s piling up in the street
It took every shred of the light in the life out of me
To love you like crazy and still let you walk out
Like you did, on the night, the night where I told you

That even if I crawled to the ends of the earth
And if I held your heart in my hands as it burned
And even if I loved you, in deed and in word
Where you’re living now is none of my concern
We were never gonna end on good terms

This late at night, I hate walking home alone
I’m wet, and I’m drunk, and I’m tired, and I’m cold
There ain’t none of my story you ain’t heard before
Just some fool and his Juliet, shouting all crazy
Like you did on the night, the night when you told me

That even if I crawled to the ends of the earth
And if I held your heart in my hands as it burned
And even if I loved you, in deed and in word
Where you’re living now is none of my concern
We were never gonna end on good terms

And if you see me out at the bar with my good friends
Just walk on by, like I’m no one from nowhere
And maybe don’t dance all sad and slow like I like it

‘Cause even if I crawled to the ends of the earth
And if I held your heart in my hands as it burned
And even if I loved you, in deed and in word
Where you’re living now is none of my concern
We were never gonna end on good terms

And if you see me somewhere, shining like gold
Pretend that I’m someone that you don’t know
