So Good
L.J. Reynolds Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
She makes me lose
All of my prior thoughts I had to do right and not wrong
Could never trust
That this is love
But an excuse
To act it in lust
I know I have her only for so long
So I had to be the one
To be honest from the jump
I'm not looking for no love, no
She said that she didn't care
Then she took me to her bed
Bet you know what happened next, yeah
All in all she made me feel so good
All in all she made me feel so good
All in all she made me feel so good
All in all she made me feel so good
Ah yeah
She makes me feel some way
Don't want love right now
But I will some day
And when I do I hope that it won't hurt her
She says that she doesn't mind
Because it feels so good and it feels so right
And though we're satisfied
I know that we're wasting time
So I had to be the one
To be Honest from the jump
I'm not looking for no love, no
She said that she didn't care
Then she took me to her bed
Bet you know what happened next
All in all she made me feel so good
All in all she made me feel so good
All in all she made me feel so good
All in all she made me feel so good
Though she's so fine
I know she's isn't mine
And I have to let this go
Nou pap ka separe
Mem mwen dwe kite
If we stay we might block our growth
She makes me feel
She makes me feel
She makes me feel
She makes me feel
She makes me feel
You make me feel so good
You make me feel so good
You make me feel so good
You make me feel so good
Li fe'm santi bien
She made me feel so damn good
Li fe'm santi bien
She made me feel so damn good
Li fe'm santi bien
Ah yeah
In L.J. Reynolds's song "So Good," the singer reflects on his experience with a woman who he is not interested in pursuing a serious relationship with. He admits to being hypnotized by her, unable to resist her advances despite his reservations. The singer recognizes that the situation is not sustainable and that he will eventually have to let go of the relationship, but for now, he is content to enjoy the moment. He acknowledges that he is not looking for love at the moment and hopes that when he is ready, he will find someone who will not be hurt by his past experiences.
The lyrics of "So Good" offer an honest portrayal of a complicated relationship, one that blurs the lines between physical intimacy and emotional attachment. The singer's conflicted feelings are conveyed through his admission that he is not looking for love, but also through his repeated claims that the woman he is with makes him feel "so good." The song suggests that even though the singer may not be ready for a serious relationship, he is still seeking a meaningful human connection, something that his current partner is able to offer, albeit temporarily.
