October, 1973
Once I was glad
Always happy, never sad
And every day seemed like Sunday
And although things were slow
Never seemed to have no dough
Somehow, I never once got lonely
Ya' see the fact is more or less
You're gamblin' with your own happiness
And most all your would-be friends
Turn out so phony
[Chorus 1]
Oh but times they change
And re-arrange and I've seen
The Queen of Hearts
Don't know where to start
Or how to stop
[Verse 2]
And as the days have come and gone
Left me feelin' that I've done so wrong
I've wasted so much time feelin' guilty
And as I watch you sit across the room
Beautiful as the flower's bloom
Leave it lay just one day
Oh brother you're gonna come back
To find me gone
