Over the Rhine - Happy to Be So

Anything I say will be held against me
So I won't say much, or I'll spill it all
By the light of day it's an elusive feeling
But every single night that's immaterial

I know a love that will not let me go
My heart is bound, and happy to be so
It's so happy to be so
Happy to be so
Happy, happy, happy to be so

If I try to pray, it's like a game of red rover
I take a real good run at it, but I can't break through
Don't matter anyway; I'm so red-handed
The game is over; I'll just tell the truth

I know a love that will not let me go
My heart is bound and gagged and on death row
It's so happy to be so
Happy to be so
Happy, happy, happy to be so, oh
