Comes on over wants to drown his sorrows
Got a two seater sofa
and some whiskey in a bottle
Broken in tears with the weight
of the world on his shoulder
Oh my god Sam
what's happened to ya Says his
wife's just left with his two year old daughter
To live in Acapulco
with some idiot she only met two months ago
I wish I could tell you that
If it was me I would be a good wife
I would never doubt you
Ours would be a good life
And we could be better than so many
I would never stress you
About bringing home the plenty
So all these things
Another life I'll have to wait
Would have been perfect
If only God had wanted it
But you'll never know when
We'll get old
Let's not talk about it
Rest your head up on my shoulder
You'll never know
You'll never know
You'll never know the good life
You'll never know the good life
You'll never know the good life
Somebody once told me
that there are watchers
and there are doers in the world
I guess I'm a watcher
not by choice
it's just what I was hurled
We're just two friends
it's not a risky situation
I wish I could tell you that
If it was me I would be a good wife
I would never doubt you
Ours would be a good life
And we could be better than so many
I would never stress you
About bringing home the plenty
So all these things
Another life I'll have to wait
Would have been perfect
If only God had wanted it
But you'll never know when
We'll get old
Let's not talk about it
Rest your head up on my shoulder
You'll never know
You'll never know
You'll never know the good life
You'll never know the good life
You'll never know the good life
Rest your head up on my shoulder
I'm so tired you can see
Now that life's a little colder
I could love you simply
And even if you'll never know
Wouldn't leave if it was me
My love will never run away like the sunshine
Good time friend not just the good time
So all these things
Another life I'll have to wait
Would have been perfect
If only God had wanted it
But you'll never know when
We'll get old
Let's not talk about it
Rest your head up on my shoulder
You'll never know
You'll never know
You'll never know the good life
You'll never know the good life
You'll never know the good life
