Lee Ann Womack - Happiness lyrics

Down at the lost highway cafe I met a man there with a map in his hand He said "I'm a little bit confused And I'm not sure where I am" He said, "I'm trying to find this place Been trying to get there for a long, long time" Then he smiled and looked away And asked me if I'd heard of happiness I told him that it just might take a while Maybe some years, and a lotta miles Go down the road till you hit party ville Don't stop unless you're lookin' for cheap thrills Go past love to you hear wedding bells Stop and honeymoon and rest a spell You might get lost on the way is my guess It ain't easy finding happiness He said, "I think I understand I better go before the sun goes down 'Cause it's hard to see at night And I just don't trust my eyes anymore" I said "Good luck" and watched him leave He hit the fast lane, then he disappeared Just another weary traveler like so many Trying to find his way back home There's so many stops along the way You keep on hoping that there'll come a day I should have told him but I think he knows So many places where he shouldn't go So many souls that get turned around Lookin' and wonderin' why it can't be found It's a straight shot past loneliness Why can't we seem to find happiness? It's easy to get turned around I guess On the road to happiness
