- Good Life Lyrics

Woke up in London yesterday
Found myself in the city near Piccadilly
Don't really know how I got here
I got some pictures on my phone

New names and numbers that I don't know
Address to places like Abbey Road
Day turns to night, night turns to whatever we want
We're young enough to say

Oh, this has gotta be the good life
This has gotta be the good life
This could really be a good life, good life

I say, "Oh, got this feeling that you can't fight"
Like this city is on fire tonight
This could really be a good life, a good, good life

To my friends in New York, I say hello
My friends in L.A. they don't know
Where I've been for the past few years or so
Paris to China to Colorado

Sometimes there's airplanes I can' t jump out
Sometimes there's bullshit that don't work now
We've all got stories, but please tell me
What there is to complain about?

When you're happy like a fool, let it take you over
When everything is out you gotta take it in

Oh, this has gotta be the good life
This has gotta be the good life
This could really be a good life, good life
I say, oh, got this feeling that you can't fight
Like this city is on fire tonight
This could really be a good life, a good, good life
Oh, a good, good life, yeah

Hopelessly
I feel like there might be something that I'll miss
Hopelessly
I feel like the window closes oh so quick

Hopelessly
I'm taking a mental picture of you now
'Cause hopelessly
The hope is we have so much to feel good about

Oh, this has gotta be the good life
This has gotta be the good life
This could really be a good life, good life

I say, "Oh, got this feeling that you can't fight"
Like this city is on fire tonight
This could really be a good life, a good, good life
Oh yeah, good, good life, good life, oh, this is

To my friends in New York, I say hello
My friends in L.A. they don't know
Where I've been for the past few years or so
Paris to China to Colorado

Sometimes there's airplanes I can' t jump out
Sometimes there's bullshit that don't work now
We've all got stories but please tell me
What there is to complain about?

What is the meaning behind Good Life lyrics?


When we take a closer look at its interpretation, OneRepublic's 'Good Life' is a song that highlights the positive things in life even if there are difficulties and doubts. It talks about enjoying the present, living the moment, and finding happiness in trivial things— all under the metaphor of 'the good life' no matter the challenges one goes through. Good life lyrics predominantly depict the themes of joy, celebration, inspiration, hope, and empowerment. Simultaneously, the song also underlines the significance of life celebration, living the moment, and establishing friendship and connection. The lyrics portray some adult issues and employ some mature language that could be inappropriate for kids, including allusions to one's personal experiences and moods of dissatisfaction. However, the main idea is still a good one and does not have any explicit elements, thus the song can be considered suitable for a PG rating.
