Seven weeks have passed now since she left me
She shows her face to ask me how I am
She says that the kids are fine and that they miss me
Maybe I could come and babysit sometime
She says Are you okay? I was worried about you, can you forgive
me? I hope
that you`ll be happy.
I`m so happy that I can`t stop crying
I`m so happy I`m laughing through my tears
I saw a friend of mine, he said, I was worried about you, I heard she had
another man, I wondered how you felt about it.
I`m so happy that I can`t stop crying
I`m so happy I`m laughing through my tears
Saw my lawyer, Mr. Good News, he got me joint custody and legal separation
I`m so happy that I can`t stop crying
I`m so happy I`m laughing through my tears
I`m laughing through my tears
I took a walk alone last night
I looked up at the stars
To try and find an answer in my life
I chose a star for me, I chose a star for him
I chose two stars for my kids and one star for my wife
Something made me smile
Something seemed to ease the pain
Something about the universe and
How it`s all connected
The park is full of Sunday fathers
And melted ice cream
We try to do the best within the given time
A kid should be with his mother
Everybody knows that
What can a father do but babysit sometimes
I saw that friend of mine, he said, You look different somehow.
I said, Everybody`s got to leave the darkness sometime.
I`m so happy that I can`t stop crying
I`m so happy I`m laughing through my tears
I`m so happy that I can`t stop crying
I`m so happy I`m laughing through my tears
I`m laughing through my tears
