[Verse 1]
The lonely man I make myself to be
Is not as bad as some things I have seen
The picture painted here is not a dream
But only reality, the way it seems

[Chorus]
The happier you fly, the sadder you crawl
The laughter in your eye is never all
Give me strength to move along
Give me strength to realize she's gone

[Verse 2]
I'm riding down Swett Road in my old car
The moon is almost full except for stars
The party endеd long before the night
Shе made me feel alive and that's all right

[Chorus]
The happier you fly, the sadder you crawl
The laughter in your eye is never all
Give me strength to move along
Give me strength to realize she's gone

[Harmonica Break]
[Chorus]
The happier you fly, the sadder you crawl
The laughter in your eye is never all
Give me strength to move along
Give me strength to realize she's gone
