happy accident

Bright Eyes

There s a lot of things I could have done
Little tokens of my love
That I was always saving up to spend
It s the thought that counts, I guess
Even ones that don t make sense
Even when it s easy to forget

To much time for the self-employed
I heard you scream in your mother s voice
So afraid you d become her in the end
You want a life that you cannot live
But that is what keeps you competitive
Throw another shower for a friend

Tell me where it is
Because I m looking for their happiness
C mon, tell me where it is
For the sake now of the argument
C mon, tell me where it is
Because I m looking for their happiness
C mon, tell me where it is
Because I m looking

Not yet a mother but a good complex
You like the boys when they re scared of sex
What a shame that they grow up to be men
Well, maybe father does know best
And that s the reason why he left
All your pride to the last ditch you defend

It took a while to accept our fate
And all the chance it eliminates
Once we did there was nothing to pretend
Always say there s a time and place
So maybe ours will consolidate
If they do I will greet you as a friend

You can show me where it is
Because I m looking for your happiness
C mon, show me where it is
Now you found it all by accident
C mon, show me where it is
Because I m looking for your happiness
C mon, tell me where it is
Because I m looking
