The Good Side Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I got the good side of things
Left you with both of the rings
My fingers danced and swayed in the breeze
The change in the wind took you down to your knees
I got the good side of you
Send it out into the blue
The people danced to the sound of your heart
The world sang along to it falling apart
[Chorus]
But I sympathize, and I recognize
And baby, I apologize
That I got the good side
The good side of things
[Verse 2]
I got the good side of life
Travelled the universe twice
So many thoughts I wanted to share
But I didn't call because it wouldn't be fair
Then I got the good side of new
Found arms to fall right into
I know how it looked, it wasn't the plan
And some day I hope that you'll understand
[Chorus]
That I sympathize, and I recognize
And baby, I apologize
That I got the good side
The good side of things
[Bridge]
I'm sure we'll meet in the spring
And catch up on everything
I'll say I'm proud of all that you've done
You taught me the ropes, and you taught me to love
[Chorus]
But I sympathize, and I recognize
And baby, I apologize
That I got the good side
The good side of things
Sympathize, recognize
Apologize
That I got the good side
The good side of things

What did Troye Sivan say about "The Good Side"?
In an interview with Zane Lowe on Beats 1 Troye stated:
“This song’s a little rough. It’s basically about a breakup that I went through a while ago. You know, in a breakup, I think just the sheer nature of it, is that someone is going to get it rough. And I happened to be on the good side of things...
What was the inspiration behind the song?
With “The Good Side” I was writing with my best friend Leland and Allie X and Braymond Scott, who’s a team I am extremely comfortable with. We’ve written together for a good few years now. This story we’re writing about is kind of an older story. It had been a good while since this had all gone down...
What's the song about?
It’s weird now because I wrote the song a year ago and even then already I was being reminiscent. I was going and visiting these feelings I had stored for a while so it feels like I’m all of a sudden bringing up this weird old drama in my life; it’s just because of the way the music industry works a...
How did this song come about?
We started writing this song on guitar. Then we double tracked the guitar and it got this really classic sound to it that I just fell in love with. I was like, “let me try and track”. We wrote it verse by verse and then I would write and then track vocals ,and then write and then track vocals. We di...
