LYFE Kitchen is an American fast-food restaurant chain operating in California, Texas, Colorado, Illinois, Nevada, New York and Tennessee. The company's name is an acronym that stands for "Love Your Food Everyday".
LYFE's official motto "Eat Good. Do Good. Feel Good." reflects the company's mission to serve low-calorie, sustainably-sourced meals. It is considered to be fast-casual dining and is part of the rising trend of "farm-to-counter" restaurants that source their ingredients from local growers. Co-founder Mike Donahue said the chain emphasizes "the tastiness" of the items on its menu rather than the health-food qualities, "I tell our people they have to start every message with 'Tastes great, tastes great, tastes great. And oh, by the way, it is good for you'", he told the Los Angeles Times.
LYFE was founded in 2011 by Mike Roberts, the former global president of McDonald's, Stephen Sidwell, and Mike Donahue, McDonald's former chief of corporate communications in Palo Alto, California. The company plans to open up to 20 locations during 2015.
Verse 1:
A thought in my head, I think
Of something to do
Expressions tell everything
I see one on you
Chorus:
Whoa-oh-oh-oh, my love she comes in colors
You can tell her from the clothes she wears
Verse 2:
When I was invisible
I needed no light
You saw right through me, you said
Was I out of sight?
[repeat chorus]

Verse 3:
When I was in England town
The rain fell right down
I looked for you everywhere
'Til I'm not around
[repeat chorus]
