The Soft Fall

A sunset is just a sunset
But driving with you over the '25th of April Bridge'
Now that's a ride
So let's go

Somewhere good
We're getting by
We take the car
It's an 85
And we do
What we're doing best
Over the bridge
To the seaside
And that's me in the surf
See those kids do summersaults
And that's you
You got some nerve
You give me things
That I don't deserve

And I love to see you walk
Under this clear starry night
If above is where we look
Down here is where we find
On the beach we never seem
To end a dream like this
This is what the good life is

This is what the good life is
Heaven's round the corner where we shelter
Heaven as a harmless sin
It's the sun on your skin

Watch it glow
I can almost see
The soft fall
Of your dress on me
There's a show
Going on tonight
Do you wanna go
Or should we skip the light
And that's me behind some wine
(Honey, can you pass me those icecubes in the shape of stars)
And that's you you are my kind
You are the tonic and the gin combined

And I love to see you walk
Under this clear starry night
If above is where we look
Down here is where we find
On the beach we never seem
To end a dream like this
This is what the good life is

You cannot know if you don't try
(This is what they say it's like)
You cannot try if you're too shy
(This is just the world inside reflected in your eye)
So don't be too shy
Cause it's my intention
To not let the good life
And good times pass me by

And we know the world is ill
So nurse it back to health
It's that time when you don't care
About all the pain you felt
Oh my love
It can not ever get as good as this
This is what the good life is
To me...
