“Good Love” is based on a dream Natasha had about being on a road trip, trying to find a town where her lover was.
Most of the recording is part of the original demo.
[Verse 1]
In the nighttime we are found
Misty sorrow swoop unbound
Whisper you mean it, say you'll stay
Hold my heart till brighter days

Was that 'Good Love'?
Cause my heart caught fire (went up in flames)
