The Flashing Lights - Half the Time lyrics

I lost my true love back in 1989 She was the greatest friend that you could ever find Now there are children swinging off her homemade skirt When I grow up I might ask her to mend this hurt Cause I'm only happy half the time Yah, I'm only happy half the time I lost my true love back in 1994 She did not want to belong to me anymore Now I picture her laughing through a gla** of wine And I cry more tears but she was never only mine And she's only happy half the time Yah she's only happy half the time She's only happy half the time Yah she's only happy half the time I found my true love back in 1996 I knew I'd find her when I headed for the sticks But she's no country girl and she won't give up on me yet Each night I tell her I love her and hoping she'll forget That we're only happy half the time We're only happy half the time We're only happy half the time Yah we're only happy half the time
