Laughing on the Inside - Chuck Prophet

The head of a horse, the heart of a dog

What kind of creature is that?

The river of life changes course every morning

Well we stood on the banks, we stared at the sun

I felt you take hold of my hand

When you took off your dress I couldn’t believe my good fortune

Oh I’m laughing on the inside

Yeah I’m crying out loud

Well we planted our flag at the top of the hill

Now it’s a hole in the ground

When they turned on the hose it felt like a drop in the ocean

I rob myself blind to pay myself back

Thought I could make it alone

Til you said goodbye to the sound of the sirens approaching

Oh I’m laughing on the inside

Yeah I’m crying out loud

Instrumental

Oh I’m laughing on the inside

Yeah I’m crying out loud

Oh I’m laughing on the inside

Yeah I’m crying out loud

Alright
