Lyrics All Through Throwin' Good Love After Bad - Guy Clark

This is a song I wrote with a friend of mine
Named Richard Lee
Richard Lee is a wooden boat, sailor and builder
And all around good guy
One of the other things he did
He's the guy that wrote, don't it make my brown eyes blue
And ah, wrote it about his dog, actually
'Course he didn't tell Crystal Gayle that 'til little later

Oh, a time there was I was feelin' so hopeless
It's a wonder I didn't cave in
I kept throwing love at all the wrong people
Never to see it again

But, oh Lord won't you look what I've found
Starin' me right in the face
I'm through being lonely and I'm through being sad
And I'm all through throwin' good love after bad

When I think of all of the time I have wasted
Wearin' my heart on my sleeve
Entrusting my love to the kindness of strangers
Oh I was so naive

But, oh Lord won't you look what I've found
Starin' me right in the face
I'm through being lonely and I'm through being sad
And I'm all through throwin' good love after bad

I said, oh Lord won't you look what I've found
Starin' me right in the face
I'm through being lonely and I'm through being sad
I'm all through throwin' good love after bad
