Happy Day
Lyrics
Sorry that I stormed away
My head was spinning like a weathervane
I wish I had something to say other than
I hope you have a happy day
And I hope you have a happy day
Yes I hope you have a happy day

I was stunned
By the thunder
Of a laugh that could only be you

I spun around
I couldn't see you weren't near me
Only ghosts were near me
Only ghosts

I'm sorry that I slipped away
My life was skating on a razorblade
I wish I had something to say other than
I hope you have a happy day
And I hope you have a happy day
Yes I hope you have a happy day

I had to struggle
With worn-out troubles
Of cold summers that turned blue

I hung around
But you couldn't see that you weren't near me
Only ghosts were near me
Only ghosts

I'm sorry that I ran away
Our hearts were marching in a fatal parade
I wish I had something to say other than
I hope you have a happy day
And I hope you have a happy day
Yes I hope you have a happy day

Caught between choosing sides
I chose the losing one

Caught between choosing sides
I found the self-centred sun
And rue the damage it has done

Warm tears dissolve raw pain
Hard feelings take years of rain
Memories get washed away
Cold hearts that can't be saved
I'm a coward so I crept away
Oh I'm haunted by what I might say

Sorry that I stormed away
I guess I didn't have the courage to stay
I wish I had something to say other than
I hope you have a happy day
And I hope you have a happy day
Yes I hope you have a happy day
