Happy With Myself?

Over the Rhine · Eve [1992]

Happy With Myself?

words: Bergquist and Detweiler

music: Bergquist

recording: Eve



I'm happy with myself

I'm happy with myself

and I don't have what it takes to please you



I've been trying to write you a letter

I've been trying for two or three years

maybe I could just say it better

practice some in front of a mirror here oh



I've been trying to build you a heaven

crowns of thorns in Mason Jars

angels that dance on pins and needles

maybe I've tried a little too hard oh
