The last time I saw baby she was standing at the window
With a look of please-don't-hurt-me in her eyes
Her loving lips were trembling cause she knew that I was leaving
And the last time I saw baby she cried

I told her when I met we'll live and love together
Just as far as we can let it go
It worked just like we said it would but it was gettin' much too good
And I knew while I still could I'd better go

Cause baby made it good she told me that she could
[ guitar - steel ]
We did our things together but nothing lasts forever
And we satisfied ourselves like lovers should
She told me love is never any better than you make it
And I hate to go cause baby made it good

Baby made it good she told me that she could
Baby made it good she told me that she could
