I told her that things could not be better,
Every day's red letter for me,
I told her my burdens are much lighter and all the lights are brighter for me.

Makes her so happy, so I'll lie again,
Makes her so happy, so I'll lie again.

I told her, "Don't worry any longer 'cause faith is getting stronger in me"
I told her all the things I'm learning, and how the tide is turning for me.

Makes her so happy, so I'll lie again,
Makes her so happy, so I'll lie again.

Meanwhile, I'm feeling like a ghost on the edge of night,
Restless for a home I can glimpse in the fading light,
Craving for something I can never quite get right,
Feeling only inches away.
Meanwhile, I pass through the crowd on the boulevard,
Turn a deaf ear to every laugh that is coming hard,
Add another pile to the trash in the junkyard, while keeping all the waking dogs at bay.

I told her things could not be better,
Every day's red letter for me.

Makes her so happy, so I'll lie again,
Makes her so happy, so I'll lie again.
