Good Wife lyrics

Comes on over

Wants to drown his sorrows

Got a two-seater sofa

And some whiskey in a bottle

Broke and in tears

With the weight of the world on his shoulder

Oh my God, Sam

What's happened to you?

Says his wife's just left him

With his two-year-old daughter

To live in Acapulco with some idiot

She only met a couple 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

For 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

And we'll get old

Let's not talk about it

Rest your head

Upon 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 doers in this world

I guess I am 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

For 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

And we'll get old

Let's not talk about it

Rest your head

Upon 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 upon my shoulder

I'm so tired you can't 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 would never

Run away like the sunshine

Good time friend

Not just the good times

For 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

And we'll get old

Let's not talk about it

Rest your head

Upon 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
