Well, I would never found you if he had wanted to stay
Oh, he hurt me bad in a real good way
Well, he opened my eyes to a world beyond
That impossible dream I was living on

And I thank my lucky star each night
When you're in my arms and you're holding me tight
I realize what it means to have your true love
Well, I would never found you if he had wanted to stay
Oh, he hurt me bad in a real good way

And I thank my lucky star each night
When you're in my arms and you're holding me tight
I realize what it means to have your true love
When I look back on my life before 
How my heart got shattered with a slamming door
I see how it all had to be for the two of us

Oh the river of tears that flow from my eyes
Was only moving me on to this paradise
Well, I would never found you if he had wanted to stay
Oh, he hurt me bad in a real good way
Oh, he hurt me bad in a real good way
