Happiness

Down by the lost highway cafe I met a man there with a map in his hands He said I'm a little bit confused And I'm not sure where I am He said I'm trying to find this place Been trying to get there for a long, long time Then he smiled and looked away and asked me if I'd heard of happiness I told him it just might take a while Maybe some years and a lot of miles Go down the road till you hit partyville Don't stop unless you're looking for cheap thrills Go past love till you hear wedding bells Stop at honeymoon and rest a spell You might get lost on the way's my guess It ain't easy finding happiness He said I think I understand I better go before the sun goes down Cause it's hard to see at night And I just don't trust my eyes anymore I said good luck and watched him leave He hit the fast lane then he disappeared Just another weary traveler like so many trying to find his way back home There's so many stops along the way You keep hoping that they'll come a day I should've told him But I think he knows So many places he shouldn't go So many souls that get turned around Looking and wondering why it can't be found It's a straight shot past loneliness Why can't we seem to find happiness Its easy to get turned around I guess On the road to happiness
