lyrics

All I wanted you to be is happy
In your crazy dreams could you be happy

Lying awake I see your eyes
Deep despair I apologize
Now I am young five years a babe
Would you like another pillow for your head?

All I wanted you to be is happy
In your crazy dreams could you be happy
I’d do anything to make you happy I gave up my soul

When you’re down in your hole down and deep
Take a look to the left and you’ll see me
Digging out of the sand as the tide will creep
Have you lost yourself lost yourself lost yourself again?

Now autumn leaves they help me cry
Take me back to the day I died
Then I was young five years a babe
Screaming for you as you walk away
Walk away walk away

That’s ok I don’t mind even though you are not near me
Happiness is something I don’t know if you can hear me

When you’re down in your hole down and deep
Take a look to the left and you’ll see me
Digging out of the sand as the tide will creep
Have you lost yourself lost yourself lost yourself again?

All I wanted you to be is happy
