As good as it gets

by Jay-Jay Johanson

on The Long Term Physical Effects Are Not Yet Known (2007)

Such a funny little song
That I heard you hum at night
Like a strange lullaby
That made me fall asleep
I tried to write it down
Just as soon as I'm awake
But it didn't came out right
Better stick to counting sheep
Is this, is this as good as it gets
That's just what I ask myself
Is, this, is this as good as it gets
Who can answer that
I recall a childhood dream
I was standing on a roof
But I didn't dare to jump
'Cause perhaps I couldn't fly
But you pushed me and I fell
And I folded out my wings
And I never touched the ground
It was not time to say goodbye
Is this, is this, is this, is this, is this
Is this as good as it gets
That's just what I ask myself
Is this, is this as good as it gets
Who can answer that
Is this, is this as good as it gets
That's just what I ask myself
Is this, is this as good as it gets
Who can answer that
Is this, is this as good as it gets
That's just what I ask myself
Is this, is this as good as it gets
Who can answer that
