Chris Smither Happier Blue lyrics

I was sad and then I loved you
It took my breath
Now I think you love me
And it scares me to death

'Cause now I lie awake and wonder, I worry
I think about losin' you, I don't care what you say
Maybe I was happier blue, I don't care what you say
Maybe I was happier blue

Justice is a lady, blind with a scale
And a big letter-opener
She's been readin' my mail

I don't know why this should shame me
But it does, somehow, I don't care what you say
She don't look like a lady now, I don't care what you say
She don't look like a lady now

I believe in heavy thinking

I believe in heavy sound
I believe in heavy images
To hold it all down

Light as a feather, inspite of me, I don't care what you say
Faith is not a guarantee, I don't care what you say
Faith is not a guarantee

Did you think I didn't know that?
You might be right
I swear I will forget it if it
Takes all night

I never needed nothin' like I ever needed
Knowin' I needed you, I don't care what you say
None of this is nothin' new, I don't care what you say
None of this is nothin' new
