happily sad

lyrics

look at that sparrow
outside the window
i wonder where it hides its sorrow
it looks perfectly happy
as it flies from tree to tree
‘cause it doesn’t know about pity
and it doesn’t know about you
and me

it doesn’t know about these thoughts
unstucked
it doesn’t know about this heart
that never gets untied
so it looks perfectly happy
as it jumps from twig to twig
‘cause it doesn’t know what it is like
to miss

i wonder if a sparrow
has ever loved
if not
it must be happily sad
happy to be without
and sad to be without
maybe she’s satisfied to be without

i should be happily sad too
‘cause i have tried to love
happy, cause i have tried
and sad, cause i have tried
but the problem is
that i’ll never be satisfied
before my heart gets untied
and tied somewhere else
