I have loved, and i have lived
And i have had my wild romances
I've taken all that life can give
And taken my fair share of chances
It's been a good life
Far from the high life
And i thank god that this was my life
I've known just how it is to win
And i have felt the pain of losing
Some paths i chose would end in tears
But they were all of my own choosing
It's been a good life
Far from the high life
And i thank god that this was my life
I've known contentment
In a woman's arms
And felt the warmth of her devotion
And i've known heartache
And a dark despair
That was as deep as any ocean
But we get the strength to carry on
And build a life of our own making
We thank the lord for each new day
And for every breath that we are taking
It's a good life
Far from the high life
And i thank god that this was my life
I've known contentment
In a woman's arms
And felt the warmth of her devotion
And i've known heartache
And a dark despair
That was as deep as any ocean
And looking back on all the years
The loves, the sweetness, and the sorrow
Have made me what i am today
And i'd do it all again tomorrow
It's been a good life
Far from the high life
And i thank god that this was my life
We can't deny life
How it flies by, life
And i thank god that this was my life
It's a good life
Far from the high life
And i thank god that this was my life
