The good catches up

I've passed through many senseless days
And squandered love a thousand ways
Taken anger everywhere I go
Been quick to hurt, but healed so slow

But for every time I lent a hand
The angels played some Dixieland
With every hug and every kiss
Another hurt dropped off the list
Sometimes it was harder, and it took me longer
At times I was weak, but I only got stronger
'Cause sure as fire someday the good catches up

If I give it time the good catches up
It's not that far behind the good catches up
With every act of love the good catches up
The good catches up
Yes it does
The good catches up

With every act of love
When I care enough
Good catches up

You don't need a PHD
To understand these things you see
All the love that was never found
Well it's still around, yeah, it's still around
Sometimes it's harder and it may take longer
Sometimes I'm weak but I'll only get stronger
'Cause sure as fire someday the good catches up

With every act of love the good catches up
And when I care enough the good catches up
It's not that far behind, the good catches up
The good catches up
Yes it does
