Lyrics
[Verse 1]
It's the good life
Full of fun, seems to be the ideal
Yes, the good life
Lets you hide all the sadness you feel
[Verse 2]
You won't really
Fall in love
'Cause you can't take the chance
[Verse 3]
So be honest
With yourself
Don't try to fake romance
[Verse 4]
Yes, the good life
To be free and explore the unknown
Like the heartaches
When you learn
You must face them alone
[Verse 5]
Please remember
I still want you
And in case you wonder why
Well, just wake up
Kiss that good life goodbye
[Verse 6]
Please remember
I still want you
And in case you wonder why
Well, just wake up
Kiss that good life
Goodbye
