i should be laughing
Somewhere in a scrapbook There's a rose you gave to me And a photograph that's torn in half And all that's left is me  And happily ever after darlin'  Well that came after I was gone They tell you that, you can't go back Then why can't I go on  When I should be laughing at this joke Dressed up as love disguised as hope Isn't it funny after all this time A tear is falling, when I should be laughing  Sunsets like a painting Windows like a frame The night comes in and I begin To see it all again  When I should be laughing at this joke The damage done the words I spoke Isn't it funny after all this time Regret can find me when I should be laughing I should be laughing at life and all of the tricks that it plays I should be laughing at time and how fast it's slipping away  Somewhere in a scrapbook There's a rose you gave to me With one last look I close the book And let the past just be  Cause I should be laughing at this joke Dressed up as love disguised as hope Isn't it funny after all this time A tear is falling, when I should be laughing  Isn't it funny, I should be laughing And isn't it funny I should be laughing La la la la la la La la la la la la...
