If it makes you happy - Sheryl Crow

No quiero volver al pasado, me aburren las discusiones sobre lo que hice hace 5 años, en general, las cosas que hice no me enorgullecen, estoy lleno de cosas por corrregir.
Además, las falsas alabanzas me confunden, me halagan un rato y luego pasan a avergonzarme profundamente, pues se basan en la generosidad del tiempo y en falsas apreciaciones.
Pero son buenos amigos y estaban allí, y con eso para mi, había casa llena, lo demás, ni cuenta. Parte de la vida es evolucionar y cambiar para bien (aunque solo sea de intenciones), dejarse llevar por el instinto. Pero a veces se me hace que he fallado más de lo que he acertado.
Y la vieja herida se abre de nuevo.

I've been long, a long way from here
Put on a poncho, played for mosquitos,
And drank til I was thirsty again
We went searching through thrift store jungles
Found Geronimo's rifle, Marilyn's shampoo
And Benny Goodman's corset and pen

Well, o.k. I made this up
I promised you I'd never give up

If it makes you happy
It can't be that bad
If it makes you happy
Then why the hell are you so sad

You get down, real low down
You listen to Coltrane, derail your own train
Well who hasn't been there before?
I come round, around the hard way
Bring you comics in bed, scrape the mold off the bread
And serve you french toast again

Well, o.k. I still get stoned
I'm not the kind of girl you'd take home

If it makes you happy
It can't be that bad
If it makes you happy
Then why the hell are you so sad

We've been far, far away from here
Put on a poncho, played for mosquitos
And everywhere in between
Well, o.k. we get along
So what if right now everything's wrong?

If it makes you happy
It can't be that bad
If it makes you happy
Then why the hell are you so sad
