LEE ANN WOMACK LYRICS - Happiness

"Happiness"



Down by the lost highway cafe

I met a man there with a map in his hands

He said I'm a little bit confused

And I'm not sure where I am

He said I'm trying to find this place

Been trying to get there for a long, long time

Then he smiled and looked away and asked me if I'd heard of happiness



I told him it just might take a while

Maybe some years and a lot of miles

Go down the road till you hit partyville

Don't stop unless you're looking for cheap thrills

Go past love till you hear wedding bells

Stop at honeymoon and rest a spell

You might get lost on the way's my guess

It ain't easy finding happiness



He said I think I understand

I better go before the sun goes down

Cause it's hard to see at night

And I just don't trust my eyes anymore

I said good luck and watched him leave

He hit the fast lane then he disappeared

Just another weary traveler like so many trying to find his way back home



There's so many stops along the way

You keep hoping that they'll come a day

I should've told him

But I think he knows

So many places he shouldn't go

So many souls that get turned around

Looking and wondering why it can't be found

It's a straight shot past loneliness

Why can't we seem to find happiness



Its easy to get turned around I guess

On the road to happiness
