True Happiness This Way Lies Lyrics

True Happiness This Way Lies lyrics

*************************





And have you ever wanted something so badly

that it possessed your body & your soul

through the night & through the day

until you finally get it!

And then you realise that it wasn't what you wanted after all.

And then those selfsame sickly little thoughts

now go & attach themselves to something....

....or somebody....new!

And the whole goddamn thing starts all over again.

Well, I've been crushing the symptoms but I can't locate the

cause.

Could God really be so cruel?

To give us feelings that could never be fulfilled.  Baby!

I've got my sights set on you.  I've got my sight set on you

And someday, someday, someday, you'll come my way.

But when you put your arms around me

I'll be looking over your shoulder for something new

'cause I ain't ever found peace upon the breast of a girl

       I ain't ever found peace with the religion of the world

       I ain't ever found peace at the bottom of a glass

sometimes it seems the more I ask for the less I receive

sometimes it seems the more I ask for the less I receive

  The only true freedom is freedom from the heart's desires

& the only true happiness....this way lies
