My Friend, Sadness

My Friend, Sadness I don’t like being happy all the time Because then you never know what you got I like to think positive and stay ahead Yet sometimes I just want to lay in the bed I write to you know to let you know I didn’t ask for this life, yet its still a go Not gonna give up, I will continue to try To make being happy, make me happy, not cry Is this happy I ask you to say? Nothing is fine and dandy any day Sadness is my friend and I know him well I miss him at times and he brings me down to hell So what is the problem I ask you tonight I write to tell you I guess ill be alright Or maybe ill dir in my sleep, hell who knows Only God can answer that, for he is the one who chose When I will be happy, when i will be sad When i will die, when I will be glad Sadness is my friend, and I live him dear He reminds me of my every fear
