Good Thing
Suriel Hess Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Wish I could lay here, but I'm afraid I'll take too much
And overdose, too much of you and you never know
Got my lips blue, eyes closed
Hmm
Every time you get too close I cover it up
Wanna get to know you but I'm no good at love
Every time you get too close I cover it up
Wanna get to know you but I'm no good at love
One hit at a time so it isn't too much, all too much
Too much of a good thing, it might kill ya
To know how much I've been feeling
For ya, it might feel like all too much
Too much of a good thing, it might kill ya
To know how much I've been feeling
For ya, it might feel like all too much
Scared to admit it
You got me wrapped up in your touch
Wish I could quit this
Before we both take way too much
And overdose, too much of you and you never know
Got my lips blue, eyes closed
Hmm
Every time you get too close I cover it up
Wanna get to know you but I'm no good at love
One hit at a time so it isn't too much, all too much
Every time you get too close I cover it up
Wanna get to know you but I'm no good at love
One hit at a time so it isn't too much, all too much
Too much of a good thing, it might kill ya
To know how much I've been feeling
For ya, it might feel like all too much
Too much of a good thing, it might kill ya
To know how much I've been feeling
For ya, it might feel like all too much
Too much of a good thing
What if I like, like being wasted on you?
I'm scared it might be all too much (too much of a good thing)
What if I like, like being wasted on you?
I'm scared it might be all too much
Too much of a good thing, it might kill ya
To know how much I've been feeling
For ya, it might feel like all too much
Too much of a good thing, it might kill ya
To know how much I've been feeling
For ya, it might feel like all too much
Too much of a good thing
The lyrics of Suriel Hess's song "Good Thing" delve into the complexities and uncertainties of falling in love.

The chorus "Too much of a good thing, it might kill ya / To know how much I've been feeling / For ya, it might feel like all too much" is a cautionary reminder that love can be overwhelming and dangerous.
Overall, "Good Thing" is a powerful exploration of the highs and lows of love, capturing the uncertainty, intensity, and fragility of the human heart. The song encourages listeners to embrace the risks of love while acknowledging its potential pitfalls.

Imagine hearing one of Suriel's songs playing on the radio one day 😲.That would be mind blowing and unsurprising at the same time! 😌
@jacobbalzer8307
Ikr it would be great I just added the song to my pandora playlist
@subdueds
Suriel sang this song live to me and some others in a discord call a few years ago, it sounds phenomenal when done in acoustic like honestly I'd argue that it was better than the original, it was beautiful
@amandaluperena6893
All of Suriel Hess songs will be a hit
@duyennguyenthi7229
Agree 😍😍
@Withtruth-bc9pr
You're are going to be famous.
Love from India 🇮🇳.

Let’s face it. “Sing Myself to Sleep” was amazing, and then Suriel said: “lemme make something slightly different, that’s REALLY gonna make you vibe” and then made this. “Good Thing” has got those “Go Get Them” vibes 🙏🏻 It’s not just a great song, but it puts you in a better and motivated mood like INSTANTLY. I have a playlist of like 500 songs, with all sorts of music in there; Johnny Cash, AC/DC, Ed Sheeran and a few hundred artists more. Suriel’s songs are in that playlist. To me, he honestly matches their talent. “Good Thing” is the kinda song to come on the radio and make you go: “ok...interesting...” and then the chorus hits and everyone goes “ohhh shit, what’s it called??? I wanna add it!!!” Keep doing what you’re doing Suriel🙏🏻 One day Ed Sheeran is gonna ask you to be in his No.7 Collaborations Project and we’ll be here to see it happen🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
