True Happiness This Way Lies — текст песни (The The)

*****************************
And have you ever wanted something so badly
that it possessed your body & your soul
through the night & through the day
until you finally get it!
And then you realise that it wasn`t what you wanted after all.
And then those selfsame sickly little thoughts
now go & attach themselves to something....
....or somebody....new!
And the whole goddamn thing starts all over again.
Well, I`ve been crushing the symptoms but I can`t locate the
cause.
Could God really be so cruel?
To give us feelings that could never be fulfilled. Baby!
I`ve got my sights set on you. I`ve got my sight set on you
And someday, someday, someday, you`ll come my way.
But when you put your arms around me
I`ll be looking over your shoulder for something new
`cause I ain`t ever found peace upon the breast of a girl
I ain`t ever found peace with the religion of the world
I ain`t ever found peace at the bottom of a glass
sometimes it seems the more I ask for the less I receive
sometimes it seems the more I ask for the less I receive
The only true freedom is freedom from the heart`s desires
& the only true happiness....this way lies.
