Happy Time Lyrics
Tim Buckley
Ah, its a happy time inside my mind
When a melody does find a rhyme
Says to me Im comin home to stay
Oh, lord, home to stay
Im comin home to stay
Home to stay
Ah, lord, its just the same old story
Something about love for glory
A nickel and a dime a dozen
Fame
Ah, its such a shame
Ah, the way they use your name
Ah, you know its such a shame
When its only mine to sing a song
Hoping that youd cross along my way
Before I have to move along
Ah, now move along
Ah, but Ill be back again
Ooh back again
Ah, its a happy time inside my mind
When a melody does find a rhyme
Says to me Im comin home to stay
Oh, lord, home to stay
Im comin home to stay
Home to stay
Sleep late now mama
Let the mornin sun warm your bed
While Im away
While Im away
