When you called me, I was feeling so bad I couldn't help counting the things that I had Counting for hours, coming up short The things that I'm missing, never seen them before A twist of paranoia, sure to destroy ya I'm writing my letters, I'm writing longhand I'm ripping my sweaters, I'm lying in sand I'm watching the ocean washing up rope I bring it inside, it's bringing me hope A twist of paranoia, sure to destroy ya "If I asked you where you been, would you tell me everything?"

When I was a bird, the only thing that could be heard were wings wrapping round the wind and the wind it was strong, carried me along But I am bound to you the wind can drown you too When you were a bird, I clung to your every word But I clipped your wings, it was such a selfish thing But I am bound to you the wind can drown you too

I don't want to fight with you (I just want you to be happy) but we need to talk it through (I just want you to be happy) You gotta learn to let people in Let em be what they've always been Learn to tell a crime from a sin I just want you to be happy You're not very self aware (I just want you to be happy) But I know you can take it there (I just want you to be happy) You gotta learn how to walk the line Watch the canary in the mine You're crying wolf all the time I just want you to be happy I can still see you there, with the wind blowing through your hair and the seagulls flown asunder I read the look on your face, as you shifted in your place on the rocks with your mother and I wonder... The trunk gives to the branch what it gets from under the branch drops to the ground the fruits of it's plunder is it any wonder? You don't wanna break the law (I just want you to be happy) but you're left with the shortest straw (I just want you to be happy) you gotta learn when to call it quits gotta know when to take the hit walk away or commit I just want you to be happy
