Good People and Bad People

Well there's good people and there's bad people

That much I've learnt along the way

But if you asked me which one that I was

I couldn't say

For I've done many things that a good man wouldn't do

But if you asked me why I've done bad things

It was for the love of you

And if a bad man is a man who

isn't true to his own heart

Well then I was true to mine

But it tore our lives apart

And I ask myself how I'm sat

On the cold stone bridge in town

With nothing to my name and you gone

And the water rolling down

And the light dances on the dirty water

And on the nickel that you throw

For there's no gold

Is it you that I see in the distance

The night is growing cold

And if you pass me on the street now

And cannot meet my eye

Do you ask yourself of good and bad

Which one of those am I?

Well there's good people and there's bad people

That much I've learnt along the way

But if you ask me which one that I was

You know I couldn't say.
