Walking Back To Happiness lyrics Lyrics

song lyrics Walking Back To Happiness lyrics Dark skies are falling down on my head tonight But I looked up and I could clearly see that moon For a second I thought I was somewhere Romantic like Mississippi But I was walking down Chelsea Bayou It takes you by suprise the places you find yourself in One minute you re here Next minute you re there And then you re gone If it wasn t for a well placed sense of direction You could lose your head and simply carry on Walking back to happiness I ve been walking back to happiness Like Helen Shapiro did Me and Helen Arm in arm Foghorns boom the daylight gloom descends Too soon on wintry afternoons That frightened heart of youth is with me now Still staring out from it s upstairs room And you can take any road you wish to walk on You can swim to the furthest shore Or you can be like Joan of Arc babe And plug into the planet s core And go walking back to happiness I feel happy already watch me smile See me laughing Later on see me cry And as it gets colder and the night wears on a little bit I cool down yes I cool my heels I remember my father and me down on the East Pier He s pointing at the ships saying &quotThey re leaving here" Where do they go? Where do they go? Eastward Ho Eastward Ho Yes I remember my father Standing on the edge of the Pier Pointing with his finger &quotEastward Ho" And were walking back to happiness And here we go song lyrics
