Lyrics:
Oh, the good life, full of fun,
Seems to be the ideal
Yes, the good life let's you hide
All the sadness you feel.

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.

It's the good life
To be free and explore the unknown,
Like the heartaches
When you learn you must face them alone.

Please remember, I still want you,
And in case you won’t know why
Well, just wake up,
Kiss the good life "Goodbye"
