[Verse 1]
The one good thing in my life
Has gone away, I don't know why
She's gone away, I don't know where
Somewhere I cannot follow her

[Pre-Chorus]
The one good thing didn't stay too long (Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
My back was turned and she was gone

[Chorus]
Good thing, where have you gone? (Doo-doo-bee)
My good thing
You've been gone too long (Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo)

[Verse 2]
People say I should forget
There's plenty more, don't get upset
People say she's doing fine
Mutual friends I see sometime

[Pre-Chorus]
That's not what I want to hear (Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
I want to hear she wants me near

[Chorus]
Good thing, where have you gone? (Doo-doo-bee)
My good thing
You've been gone too long (Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo)
(Good thing)
[Instrumental Break]

[Bridge]
Then one day, she came back
I was so happy that I didn't ask
Morning came into my room (Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
Caught me dreaming like a fool (Hey, hey, hey)

[Outro]
Good thing, my good thing (Doo-doo-bee, good thing)
My, my, my, my good thing, where have you gone? (Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo, good thing)
My good thing, my good thing (Doo-doo-bee, good thing)
Good God, girl, where have you gone? (Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo, good thing)
It's been so long, Good God, girl (Doo-doo-bee, good thing)
Good God, girl
Good God, girl (Doo-doo-bee, good thing)
Good God, girl (Doo-doo-bee, good thing)
Good God, girl
