Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Oh, the good life
Full of fun, seems to be the ideal
Mm, the good life
Let's you hide all the sadness you feel
[Verse 2]
You won't really fall in love
For you can't take the chance
So please be honest with yourself
Don't try to fake romance
[Verse 3]
It's the good life
To be free, and explore the unknown
Like the heartaches
When you learn you must face them alone
[Verse 4]
Please remember I still want you
And in case you wonder why
Well, just wake up
Kiss the good life goodbye
Written by: Jack Reardon, Jean Broussolle, Sacha Distel
