Good Times
Ella Eyre & Sigma Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
and it's so grey, got my head in the cloud
and you
you feel it too
but I told you that we'd figure it out
all these old fools that we're better without
and you
you know it's true, yeah
tell me what it is that you need
cause I think I'm onto something
cause I feel the good times coming
tell me, tell me
tell me what it is that you need
cause I think I'm onto something
cause I feel the good times coming
tell me, tell me what it is that you need
cause I think I'm onto something
cause I feel the good times coming
oh oh oh oh oh oh
oh oh oh oh oh oh
cause I think I'm onto something
cause I feel the good times coming
tell me, tell me what it is that you need
cause I think I'm onto something
cause I feel the good times coming
(cause I feel the good times coming)
we're getting by, we've done it before
all the nightmares that I've learned to ignore
and you
you've been there too
but somehow I can settle the score
cause i know now that I need more
and you
you know it too, yeah
but tell me, tell me
tell me what it is that you need
cause I think I'm onto something
cause I feel the good times coming
oh oh oh oh oh oh
oh oh oh oh oh oh
cause I think I'm onto something
cause I feel the good times coming
oh oh oh oh oh oh
oh oh oh oh oh oh
cause I think I'm onto something
cause I feel the good times coming
tell me, tell me what it is that you need
cause I think I'm onto something
(cause I feel the good times coming)
what is that you need?
what is that you need?
but tell me, tell me
tell me what it is that you need
cause I think I'm onto something
cause I feel the good times coming
tell me, tell me
tell me what it is that you need cause I think I'm onto something cause I feel the good times coming

cause I think I'm onto something cause I feel the good times coming
In "Good Times," Ella Eyre and Sigma sing about the struggles of life and how they feel weighed down by it. They acknowledge that their partner also feels the same, but they assure them that they will all find a way to figure things out. The lyrics mention casting away older people who may not be useful anymore and focusing on what they need to do to achieve better things. They believe that they are on the brink of a breakthrough and better times are coming, and they encourage their partner to tell them what they need to ensure that things remain that way.
The lyrics are relatable in the sense that most people, at some point in their lives, have felt that they were going through a tough time. It's a reminder that everyone goes through hard times, but better days are on the horizon. The song encourages listeners to keep pushing through their struggles, and together, they will eventually come out stronger in the end.

Sigma is personally one of my favourite artists. I like all their singles such as Glitterball, Nobody To Love and Higher, but I definitely this is the best track from the album. It brings me such good vibes in a sad day it is today. Listening to this song makes me happy and think it's one of the best days I've had. Amazing
