The Bacon Brothers - Babies Are Born Happy lyrics

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
