lyrics

I know, I know happiness is sad
I know, I know all that's good is bad
I know, I know I miss what we had
I know, I know love made us mad

But love will carry me to you
Like a feather floating on the breeze
Landing on your ice cream cone
Like a snowflake on your tongue

I know, I know happiness is sad
I know, I know all that's good is bad
I know, I know my mom loves my dad
I know, I know it's just the latest fad

But love still carries me to you
Like a ghost floating through the hall
Trapped in the house of tender memory
Where the rats eat the rotten cheese

I know, I know happiness is sad
I know, I know all that's good is bad
I know, I know I miss what we had
I know, I know love made us glad
