Lyrics The Pursuit Of Happiness

The Pursuit Of Happiness

Something Physical

His kisses are like drugs... They turn your eyes inside your head

Your skin comes alive... And your brain shuts off.

Then he turns on you and he's cruel and heartless

You can't figure out what went wrong

He's a hungry baby far from his mother

And you're no comfort at all

There's something physical between you

That keeps you tied to him

Like chains, it'll drag you down

WHen he's not around it's easy to intellectualize that he's no good

So you sit at home and you sleep and you dream a little more than you should

Then he opens the door

There's liquor on his breath, and perfume in his hair

He holds you close -- he's so warm and strong

And gradually you don't care

[chorus]

Sometimes you don't hear from him at all

And the voice in your head becomes a shout

What has he got that you can't live without

[chorus]
