[Verse 1] A hand upon my forehead The joking and the laugh Waking up in your arms A place to call my own [Chorus] This is all I ever wanted from life This is all I ever wanted from life This is all I ever wanted from life [Verse 2] Ireland in the World Cup Either North or South The Fanclub on the jukebox The birds and, yes, the bees [Chorus] This is all I ever wanted from life This is all I ever wanted from life This is all I ever wanted from life [Verse 3] Words of rea**urance But only if they're true Just some simple kindness No vengeance from the gods [Chorus] This is all I ever wanted from life This is all I ever wanted from life This is all I ever wanted from life [Verse 4] To share what I've been given Some kids eventually And be for them what I've had A father like my dad [Chorus] This is all I ever wanted from life This is all I ever wanted from life This is all I ever wanted from life [Chorus] This is all I ever wanted from life This is all I ever wanted from life This is all I ever wanted from life
