Something Good
Rodgers And Hammerstein Lyrics

Perhaps I had a wicked childhood
It's possible that my childhood was full of bad things.

Perhaps I had a miserable youth
It's possible that my youth was unhappy.

But somewhere in my wicked miserable past
Even though my past was difficult, there must have been a moment of clarity.

I must have had a moment of truth
There must have been an event in my past when I realized something important.

For here you are
You are here and present with me.

Standing there
You are physically present and standing before me.

Loving me
You have a deep affection and care for me.

Whether or not you should
Despite any reasons why you may feel you should not love me, you still do.

Nothing comes from nothing
You cannot expect to gain or receive something without putting in effort or actions.

Nothing ever could
Without action or effort, it is impossible to truly receive or achieve anything.

So somewhere in my youth or childhood
There must have been something in my past that led to this moment.

I must have done something good
Something positive must have occurred in my past to have led to this current situation.

Or childhood
This positive event could have occurred during my childhood.

So some where in my youth
This positive event could have occurred during my youth.

I must have done something
There must have been some action or decision made by me that led to this positive outcome.

Something good
The positive outcome must have been a good thing for this to have occurred.
