David Sneddon - Good Wife lyrics

[Verse 1] 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 shoulders "Oh my god, Sam, what's happened to you?" Says his wife's just left with his 2-year-old daughter To live in Acapulco with some idiot she only met a couple months ago I wish I could tell you that [Pre-Chorus] 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 when we'll get old Let's not talk about it, rest your head upon my shoulder [Chorus] 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 [Verse 1] Somebody once told me that there are watchers and there are do'ers in this world 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 [Pre-Chorus] 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 when we'll get old Let's not talk about it, rest your head upon my shoulder [Chorus] 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 [Verse 3] Rest your head upon my shoulder (I'm too 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 times [Pre-Chorus] 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 when we'll get old Let's not talk about it, rest your head upon my shoulder [Chorus] 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
