Starin' out the window From an unmade bed I got no reason to live No reason to be dead Those unnamed blues are with me today I got no reason to leave No reason to stay Sun in the night, dark in the day In a january thaw, frosted in may Searching for salvation In a stranger's eyes The sooner i sink, The sooner i'll rise So honey, don't you try to an*lyze it Just tell me why's it that Babies are born happy Though sometimes they've got to cry Babies got that sweet contentment
So why is it that you and i Get no relief? Got no belief? Steal like a thief through our days Feeling lost and alone When baby we were born happy Where'd we lose that Sweet contentment? Flyin' to an island On a silver plane But we just Can't escape The growin' pains 'cause the ghost And the smoke Of a nightmare past Will be chasing us Down twice as fast So honey don't it Hurt to realize it? We can't disguise it Chorus
