Happy

I just called home and I said I was fine
Just like I do every Sunday night
They're all sitting round the table
Eating the roast
And I'm holding back tears
Pretending to boast

My song's on the radio
Hey, aren't you proud?
They yell and they holler
Sippin' wine to their mouths

They say goodnight and I hang up the phone
But I've never felt so God damn alone

Maybe when cows jump over the moon
I see rainbows ends I might tell the truth
The dream's not the dream that I thought it would be
My only dream now is to be happy

Had to borrow five dollars to pay a bill
I know they'd lend it but pride it'll kill
Selling guitars that nobody wants
'Cause being left-handed's another damn fault

Maybe when cows jump over the moon
I see rainbows ends I might tell the truth
The dream's not the dream that I thought it would be
My only dream now is to be happy

Got so far removed that I wanted to quit
Tried something else for the hell of it
But it wasn't the music that got it all wrong
'Cause not even a virus could kill off my songs

Maybe when cows jump over the moon
I see rainbows ends I might tell the truth
The dream's not the dream that I thought it would be
My only dream now is to be happy

I don't need cows jumping over the moon
Or a pot of gold to tell me the truth
It's all about heart and soul, don't you see?
And that's all I needed to be happy
