Lyrics

I don't know why I'm so happy
I'm sad
I'm in trouble
Seein' double
I have been hurting for someone
So long
Is it you?
Is it you?
We're like a scene
From the African Queen
We're so slam bang
We're so yin-yang
You had my heart followed
And you locked it
And swallowed
The key
I came unglued the night I met you
I felt my life divide by two
You'd think by now I would know better
Love is always blue
Your laissez-faire
And your long chestnut hair
Drive me crazy
Make me lazy
Like poor little kitten's
I done lost all my mittens
For you
I came unglued the night I met you
I felt my life divide by two
You'd think by now I would know better
Love is always blue
Oh, I don't know why I'm so happy
I'm sad
But I am
Yes I am
Yes I am
Yes I am
Oh, I don't know why I'm so happy
I'm sad
But I am
Yes I am
Yes I am
Yes I am
