Lyrics

[00:04.75] He comes on over, wants to drown his sorrows
[00:07.81] Got a two-seat sofa and some whiskey in a bottle
[00:12.76] Broke, in tears, with the weight of the world on his shoulder
[00:20.78] Oh my God, Sam, what's happened to your senses?
[00:24.70] Wife's just left with his two-year-old daughter
[00:28.27] To live in Acapulco
[00:30.02] With some idiot she met a couple months ago
[00:35.34] I wish I could tell you that
[00:36.83] If it was me, I would be a good wife
[00:40.36] I would never doubt you
[00:42.39] Ours would be a good life
[00:44.61] We could be better than so many
[00:48.45] I would never stress you
[00:50.04] About bringing home the plenty
[00:52.64] For all these things, another life I'll have to wait
[00:56.74] Would have been perfect, if only God had wanted it
[01:00.62] But you'll never know it, we'll get old
[01:04.43] Let's not talk about it, rest your head upon my shoulder
[01:08.68] You'll never know
[01:10.28] You'll never know
[01:11.13] You'll never know the good life
[01:15.19] You'll never know the good life
[01:19.03] You'll never know the good life
[01:24.59] Somebody once told me that there are watchers
[01:26.59] And there are doers in this world
[01:28.72] I guess I'm a watcher, not by choice
[01:31.15] It's just what I was wrong
[01:32.84] We're just two you friends
[01:35.06] It not a risky situation
[01:39.37] I wish I could tell you that
[01:40.92] If it was me, I would be a good wife
[01:44.33] I would never doubt you
[01:46.25] Ours would be a good life
[01:48.58] We could be better than so many
[01:52.44] I would never stress you about bringing home the plenty
[01:56.66] For all these things, another life I'll have to wait,
[02:00.74] Would have been perfect, if only God had wanted it,
[02:04.65] But you'll never know it, we'll get old,
[02:08.46] Let's not talk about it, rest your head upon my shoulder
[02:12.68] You'll never know
[02:14.26] You'll never know
[02:15.00] You'll never know the good life
[02:19.19] You'll never know the good life
[02:23.07] You'll never know the good life
[02:27.19] Rest your head upon my shoulder
[02:29.27] (I'm so tired, I can see)
[02:30.85] Now that life's a little colder
[02:33.02] (I could love you easily)
[02:34.85] Even if you'll never know
[02:36.74] (Wouldn't leave if it was me)
[02:39.01] My love will never run away like sunshine
[02:42.51] Good time friend not just the good time
[02:44.71] For all these things, another life I'll have to wait
[02:48.70] Would have been perfect, if only God had wanted it
[02:52.62] But you'll never know it, we'll get old
[02:56.39] Let's not talk about it, rest your head upon my shoulder
[03:00.67] You'll never know
[03:02.05] You'll never know
[03:02.92] You'll never know the good life
[03:07.21] You'll never know the good life
[03:11.05] You'll never know the good life
