It's the happy thingsnThat make me crynWhen they're within my graspnAnd I let them pass bynLike wild gamenYou could never tamenI know better than to trynI can only watch themnDisappear within my mindnnThough I couldn't be your other halfnNor the one to make you comenThe ties are not undonenLike a lion fednI will lay my headnOn whoever's thighs are warmnIt may not last forevernBut it's hard to live alonennIt's the happy thingsnLike holding each other tightnOr the kindness in the smilenA stranger gives sometimesnBut when it comes of coursenI'm like a frightened horsenI go kicking all aroundnI throw it off my back andnWatch it shatter on the ground
