Can't see the windblown daffodils dancing
Nor the billowing clouds of elephants romancing
See no humor in the circus clown's frown
No companionship with friends around town.
I was supposed to be happier
But I can't see it
I was told life would be better
But I can't see it
I can't see it, I can't see it
Since we split up, I can't see it
Pleasure of a dreamy midnight stroll, gone
Lost mellow mood from favorite singer's song
Feel no satisfaction from evening's sunset sky
Self-confidence and desire lacking, I know why.
I was supposed to be happier
But I can't see it
I was told life would be better
But I can't see it
I can't see it, I can't see it
Since we split up, I can't see it
Direction and purpose has drifted off course
Abundance of sadness has appeared since divorce
Tomorrow will begin another chapter of life
And the woman I love won't be my wife.
I was supposed to be happier
But I can't see it
I was told life would be better
But I can't see it
I can't see it, I can't see it
Since we split up, I can't see it
I thought I was being tied down in life
Thought it would be better without a wife
Heard the freedom of being single was a benefit
Through my never-ending tears, I can't see it.
I was supposed to be happier
But I can't see it
I was told life would be better
But I can't see it
I can't see it, I can't see it
Since we split up, I can't see it
I was supposed to be happier
But I can't see it
I was told life would be better
But I can't see it
I can't see it, I can't see it
Since we split up, I can't see it
