Sweet Life

I remember my first heartache
 Learning all the different ways a heart could break
 I took off to San Francisco Bay grieving
 Then there was the one in Tennessee
 That one nearly was the end of me
 So sweet but looks can be deceiving
 I had lots of big plans for tomorrow
 Most of them probably wouldn't come true
 And maybe it's a bitter pill to swallow
 But it led me here to this sweet life beside you
 I lived with someone up in Providence
 Looking back it didn't make a lot of sense
 One of us was always on the fence or leaving
 Then there was the one in Oregon
 Who wanted me to be a born again
 So I was shown the door again for being a heathen
 I had lots of big plans for tomorrow
 Most of them never did come true
 And maybe it's a bitter pill to swallow
 But it led me here to this sweet life beside you
 Now there's music in the kitchen
 Laughter down the hall
 I didn't know what I was missing
 But I almost missed it all
 Sweet life, sweet life
 Sweet life beside you
 Sweet life beside you
 Sweet life beside you
 Sweet life beside you
