Frost - Happy Sad Lyrics

A sunny afternoon
I saw a pretty butterfly
Landing on a perfect purple flower

It's wings were black and red
Fragile like a dream I had
I've never seen something so beautiful

Then a sparrow came
He flew onto a lily pad
The speckled sunlight dancing on his head

Something in his eyes
He looked like he was on his own
I don't know why but it made me want to cry

I'm only happy when I'm sad
Don't think I'll ever understand
Oh I'll never know
Don't think I'll ever know

I'm only happy when I'm sad
Don't think I'll ever understand
Oh I'll never know
Don't think I'll ever know
