[Verse 1]
Packed up my keys
In a cardboard box
Left the old address
For a place by the docks
New name on the mailbox
New dust on my shoes
I came with a job plan
And a chance to renew
[Pre-Chorus]
Now the days feel lighter
The sky opens wide
I wave to the neighbors
And step out with pride
From boardroom suits
To a shirt and a grin
I found a new rhythm
And I’m settling in
[Chorus]
Life is good, life is good
Here where the palms lean low
Life is good, life is good
Watch that easy garden grow
New streets, same smile
I breathe it in
Life is good, life is good
I’m living again (life is good)
[Verse 2]
Some came for the work
Some came to slow down
A retiree sips coffee
On the edge of town
We trade little stories
At the market square
Young hands, old hands
Everybody’s there
[Pre-Chorus]
No rush, no noise
Just a sweet afternoon
A little brass band
Playing under the moon
From the first hello
To the last porch light
This foreign land feels
Like it knows me right
[Chorus]
Life is good, life is good
Here where the palms lean low
Life is good, life is good
Watch that easy garden grow
New streets, same smile
I breathe it in
Life is good, life is good
I’m living again (life is good)
[Bridge]
I crossed an ocean
For a better day
Found more than a paycheck
Along the way
A little more peace
A little more time
A brand new chapter
That somehow feels like mine
[Chorus]
Life is good, life is good
Here where the palms lean low
Life is good, life is good
Watch that easy garden grow
New streets, same smile
I breathe it in
Life is good, life is good
I’m living again (life is good)
