Warren Zevon - She's Too Good For Me Lyrics






I could hold my head up high and say that I left first
Or I can hang my head and cry
Tell me which is worse

If you go and ask her why
She might say she's not sure
Trust me when I tell you I'm not good enough for her

I want her to be happy
I want her to be free
I want her to be everything she couldn't be with me

I'd wait here for a thousand years if she'd come back to me
I have everything she wants but nothing that she needs

I want her to be happy
I want her to be free
I want her to be everything she couldn't be with me

I could hold my head up high and say that I left first
Or I can hang my head and cry
Tell me which is worse

If you go and ask her why
She might say she's not sure
Trust me when I tell you I'm not good enough for her

Warren Zevon She's Too Good For Me Comments
  1. S.... H....

    one of his best

  2. S.... ....

    I love you Sue! You’re definitely too good for me.

  3. M.... V....

    fuckin kill me

  4. H.... B....

    yep captain no ha ha

  5. B.... A....

    Tell me which is worse

  6. D.... Z....

    I'm not good enough for her. I have everything she wants. But nothing that she needs. And it hurts that she's gone. She'll forever be my Gigglepop. I'll love her til I die.

  7. T.... B....

    This song hits me home. I met this girl and had a chance to date her, but I screwed it up. A year later she has a boyfriend. Beautiful girl, very intelligent, fun, witty, and original. I do want her to be happy with her new relationship, but I'll be damned before I give up. The door is always open on my end, and her window is open, so that's good, at least. Peace brothers...

    T.... B....

    Keep us updated, man!

    T.... B....

    That door shall never be closed if she is the one. You will open and close that door many times during the day but when you go to sleep you will always keep that door open.

  8. l.... ....

    This song is the story of me right now.

  9. Z.... ....

    Realest songwriter of all time. I was only 11 when he died, but if there's one person I wish I could have met and shook hands with, it's this man. Much Respect.

    Z.... ....

    he is a really nice guy

    Z.... ....

    @J Boo I was about 13, but I adore this man the more I dig deeper. I wish more people were familiar with him... or not. He's just a diamond in the rough for sure and I appreciate his dark, real, relateable humor and wit.

  10. B.... G....

    lots of great comments thank you all

  11. c.... ....

    this is the real shit im talkin bout

  12. M.... C....

    This makes me miss my Father so badly. He loved Warren and now I carry on the legacy. RIP Kimball Oxley and Warren Zevon.

    M.... C....

    +Randall Oxley I'm sorry for your loss. RIP.

  13. S.... J....

    poor guy seemed to spend alot of time crying in his beer

    S.... J....

    Ok Jim. I will truly take your word for it but I love his songs anyway.

    S.... J....

    Hey. The alcoholic aspect doesn't detract anything from his music. Either way, it's meaningful and sharp.

    If you like Warren and haven't read it yet, you should check out "I'll Sleep When I'm Dead" by Crystal Zevon. It's a really good look at who he was, and it makes the music even more meaningful.

    S.... J....

    +Smitty Jones He wrote all of the songs on this album after his diagnosis. That's a well known fact. After he was diagnosed, he set out to make one last great album. And fuck me if he didn't do just that.

    S.... J....

    tear in his beer

    S.... J....

    i dont think of booze of any kind when i hear warren zevon and his musical poems. i dont find a goddamn thing reflecting alcohol in his music. of course if you have sand in your ears your mileage might vary

  14. G.... L....

    Shame he's gone. He made a good point in every song.

  15. T.... H....

    How could anyone dig so deep and sing this way while seeing death come over the horizon?

    T.... H....

    @Thomas Hofheinz it helps you know ti,e is short your emotions just flow

    T.... H....

    Thomas Hofheinz is a good hb and a very good friend and a good friend and a good friend and a good friend and a good friend

  16. p.... ....

    Great shit.

  17. R.... M....

    I wish I was with her

  18. J.... J....

    Touching.

  19. A.... W....

    As always, Warren summed my thoughts and emotions up perfectly. Sometimes true love is wanting that person to be happy more than anything, even if it's with another person..

  20. g.... ....

    I love the line "I have everything she wants and nothing that she needs."

  21. o.... ....

    ~ So Heartfelt ~

  22. R.... ....

    damn, i cried so much when I've heard it the first time

  23. C.... B....

    Love runs the universe....redordead77 is absolutely right. The A-Frame of Love is Hate
    and alanbentley7 displays that just right....get bent alan. LOL

  24. C.... B....

    Ya know, this is a lovely song............but dudettes have it rough too dealing with
    the parting of the ways. So quit acting like a buncha martyrs......huh?

  25. D.... ....

    Dude, your comment gave me chills.. I'll do it like you, i want give up

  26. a.... ....

    r.i,p my love

  27. F.... ....

    @hokiejames I hope you meant bawled. Balled has a very different meaning.

  28. w.... ....

    Just beautiful ... Sums up so brilliantly the feelings of many, many people who blame themselves for their failed relationships ... Spot on again, Warren ... the master of introspective and honest lyrics ( with great melodies to go with them ) ... Wayne

  29. T.... ....

    i believe he wrote this one for his exwife.....kinda makes it even harder to take. he was one of the best and will always be missed.

  30. J.... B....

    balled my eyes out..

  31. p.... ....

    Yes,I share your feelings.

  32. M.... S....
