A Long Way to Be Happy Lyrics by Bobby Goldsboro

Broomstick Cowboy

0

[Verse 1]
My, it's a long way (a long way) to be happy now
And I just don't know if I can take it
My, it's a long way (a long way) to be happy now
And I wonder if I'm gonna make it
[Bridge]
'Cause nothing I do seems like any fun to me
You just don't know what losing you has done to me
In the middle of June it feels like December
So, little I look forward to and so much I remember
Oh woah, oh woah
[Verse 2]
It's gonna take a long time (a long time) to smile again
And I just don't know if I can do it, mm
It's gonna take a long time (a long time) to smile again
And I wonder if I'm gonna get through it
[Bridge]
I've gotta find a way to get a hold of myself again
Before I even try to give my love to someone else again
There are tears to be cried and wounds to be mended
New dreams can't be born until the old ones have ended
Oh woah, oh woah, woah, woah
[Verse 2]
You know it's gonna take a long time (a long time) to smile again
And I just don't know if I can do it, mm
It's gonna take a long time (a long time) to smile again
And I wonder if I'm gonna get through it
[Outro]
Mm-my, it's a long way (a long way) to be happy now
A long, long, long way (a long way) to be happy now
Mm-mm, it's a long way (a long way) to be happy now
