Looking Happy

Words and Music by Brian Griffin (7-13-05)

 

I see you talk with hushed tones on the phone

Telling him when you will be free for lunch

Anticipation in you voice

Waiting to be together again

The time comes and he arrives

Looking all around trying to find you

You punch out and greet him with a smile

Your eyes are smiling too

Walk down to the restaurant

You lean into his side

You hold his hand fingers entwined

You seem so alive

You are looking happy

You are looking happy

 

The joy of a relationship that's new

You said you didn't expect it to happen to you

But now you are in the thick of it

Looking for a love that's true

But you never had to go looking

As long as I was with you

Now you got the chance for love without the guilt

Everyone will approve

You say your kids love him

Everyone will approve

I ask if you're happy

Are you truly happy

 

I stand as a silent witness

Watch as you start your new life

See as he starts filling in the spaces

The spaces that used to be mine

Are his clothes filling up your closet

Is his form filling up my half of our bed

His car is parked in your driveway

What other spaces has he tried to fill

Are you feeling happy

Are you feeling happy

Are you really happy

I want you to be happy

I can make you happy
