Have A Good Life Baby
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
If we knew a way to go back through time
To the place where love was lost
We could take each other's hand again
And wander back across
But we always seem to end up here
Tryin' not to say goodbye
Baby, we don't have to say the words
Words can sometimes make you cry
Ooh, have a good life baby
Take good care of yourself
Have a good life baby
Be happy with someone else, mmm, mmm, ooh, hoo, hoo, hoo, mmm
This time we really will let go
And we won't look back again
But pretend the sun is on a rise
When the day is at an end
So, let's kiss and wish each other love
Over one more sip of wine
Oh, honey, try to give me one last smile
And I'll leave you one of mine
Ooh, hoo-oo, have a good life baby
Take good care of yourself, ah, ha, ha
Have a good life baby
Be happy with somebody else, ah, ha, oh
Ooh, hoo, hoo, hey
Have a good life baby
Take good care of yourself, ahh
Have a good life baby
Hope you'll be happy with somebody else, oh, baby
Have a good life baby
Take good care of yourself, ah, ha, ho
Have a good life baby
