lyrics

Life Is Great

In red velvet ribbons and winter greens,
I slide up beside you like a brightly lit tree
Happy christmas friend, how have you been?
Dirty old town, fire on a screen,
These old fashioned cocktails taste like spiced gasoline
This is the only place that I wanna be
Life is great, life is great, life is great, life is great
Trouble won’t find me
Life is great, life is great

How long we been here? When can we leave?
The only time I want a cigarette is on Christmas Eve
You ain’t got no secret worth keeping from me
You always been able to act like you’re free
I remember everything like I want it to be
Do you hear the sleigh bells? Do you still believe?
That life is great
Trouble don’t find me
Life is great

Early in the morning, just missed the sleigh
Ordinary coffee taste much better on this day
We’ll take it real slow, and then I’ll make it all go away
I’ll pack up all the baggage of yesterday's scene
Order up new year and bring it you you clean
Tell me where we’re going friend, not where we’ve been
Life is great is great, life is great, life is great
Life is great
Trouble behind me
Life is great, life is great
Trouble behind me
Life is great, life is great
