Half

Sitting in my blue and grey

Trying to find a better way to keep my mind off you

You've been taking up my time, but you're not around.

I've been looking through my lost and found,

But there's nothing new.

Still no you

I try to get lost in the sound

When anyone's around.

I wrote half a happy song today.

A tune to brighten up the grey

I won't be burdened with the pain

We all have to cope in our own way.

My heart's not broken.

I wrote half a happy song today.

I'm not gonna sit here

I'm not gonna cry.

I'm gonna get myself together,

And I don't know why I should.

But life's too short to spend mine on you

And you're too focused on yourself to do

Me any good. You never do me any good

I wrote half a happy song today.

A tune to brighten up the grey

I won't be burdened with the pain

We all have to cope in our own way.

My heart's not broken.

I wrote half a happy song today

My heart's not broken.

I wrote half a happy song

Today I'm gonna be happy

Put on a smile.

Not gonna think about you,

And maybe after a while,

I'll get up out of bed and

Put on some clothes

Head out to the East side

Where anything goes

Find my next heartache,

Ask her to dance,

But everybody knows

Whenever I get the chance,

(I'll be sitting at the bar)

Just drinking alone,

Screaming "baby, sweet baby

Won't you please come home."

I wrote half a happy song today.

A tune to convince myself, and then

Everyone else that everything is okay
