[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 reassurance
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
