"Something Good" is a bit problematic logistically. It's a strong dramatic stroke to have the love duet before the wedding instead of after, and of course this number is a lot better musically than "An Ordinary Couple," which to me always sounds like "Here Comes Santa Claus" in a minor key. Be that as it may, I just don't think this is the right moment for Maria to try to do a treatise on the difference between youth and childhood. The lyrics to the song make absolutely no sense to me in terms of how they seem to dwell on that.
