Out Of Eden Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You love me as I am, though you know what I should be
That's why loving you has now become my passion
CHORUS:
Ain't nothn' but a good thing [ Oh don't you know that it's true ]
Ain't nothin' but a good thing [ I am devoted to you ]
Ain't nothin' but a good thing [ You put a smile on my face ]
Ain't nothin' but a good thing
It's your love for me that has helped me to see
That people need to give to live together
If only I could love the way that you love, it would simply make the world a little better

Woah
I don't know what you see in me
Woah
But I know your love is all I need

Ooooh, Ooooh
All this love, all this love I tell ya
All this love you're giving, all this love I'm gettin'
All this love you've shown me.
BRIDGE & VERSE 1 TOGETHER [ CHORUS OUT ]
In Out Of Eden's "Good Thing," the lyrics convey a message about the depths of God's love for humanity. The first stanza talks about how God's mercy runs deeper than one can imagine and that despite knowing who one should be, God loves them as they are. As a result, loving God becomes the singer's passion.
The chorus insists that God's love is nothing but a good thing, expressing the singer's devotion to God and how the love they receive puts a smile on their face. The second stanza talks about how the love that the singer receives from God has helped them to see that to live together, people need to give. Hence, if the world could love as God does, it could become a little better.
The bridge emphasizes how the singer doesn't understand what God sees in them, but they know that God's love is all they need. It then goes on to say that the light that the singer shows to the world can help others to see that God's love is all they need. The song ends with the first verse and the chorus together.
