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 analyze 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
