But even the stopped clock on the wall is right two times a day
In my heart I've always known, I gotta be happy alone
I bet you feel really potent stuff
And can we be happy, happy alone?
And we go right in, it's there, it's new, it's cool
Show us the things we can't afford then throw us overboard
Our little hearts have turned to stone, it better be happy all alone
Just how much distance means we're on our own?
And five minutes in, an egg timer rings
Would it be fair to say that you're in love with love?
The shadows of doubt on how things turn out are typically gray
And is that enough?
Just how much distance means we're on our own?
To clip off our carefree flapping wings
So burn my mail, destroy the phone, yeah, I'd rather be happy alone
But it's still enough
The moving sky, the rocks below all so perfectly happy alone
The universe opens up the door
And it's still enough
I might be sinking like a stone, but perfectly happy, just openly happy
Until I see you off at home, down the sidewalk in my head
It's something we ain't seen before
