I've watched my dreams all fade away
And blister in the sun
Everything I've ever had is unraveled and undone

I've set upon a worthless stack
Of my ambitious plans
And the people that I've loved the most

Have turned their backs and ran

[CHORUS:]

This is the good life
I've lost everything
I could ever want

And ever dream of
This is the good life
I found everything

I could ever need
Here in Your arms


Loneliness has left me searching
For someone to love
Poverty has changed my view

Of what true riches are
Sorrow's opened up my eyes
To see what real joy is

Pain has been the catalyst
To my heart's happiness


[CHORUS]
What good would it be
If you had everything

But you wouldn't have
The only thing you need


[CHORUS]
