There goes happiness
|
Down that stream
|
Pick me up, put me down again
|
Just when I was on my feet
|
|
I get stoned every day
|
My best friends, they both went away
|
It's a debt
|
And I've got to face it alone
|
|
Been a long long time now
|
Been a long time high
|
Making up promises that went
|
While I'm in the sky
|
|
Ain’t a clue, not a trace
|
I see her all over my face
|
It's a debt
|
I've got to face it alone
|
|
And in my sleep, my troubled mind
|
Won't let go leave the past behind
|
It's a drag, so it seems
|
I must live my life in dreams
|
I must laugh while the other man weans
|
|
Guess it's the season
|
Brings a man down
|
All my fingers are stuck on my toes
|
And my feet are off the ground
|
Yesterday the world went away
|
I can't seem to find the strength to play
|
It's a debt
|
I've got to face it alone
|
|
And in my sleep my troubled mind
|
Won't let go leave the past behind
|
It's a drag, so it seems
|
I must live my life in dreams
|
I must laugh while the other man weans
|
|
Guess it's the season
|
Brings a man down
|
All my fingers are stuck on my toes
|
And my feet are off the ground
|
Yesterday the world went away
|
I can't seem to find the strength to play
|
It's a debt
|
I've got to face it alone
|
It's a debt
|
I've got to face it alone
