Good Wife

Mika

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 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
