(Patty Smyth/Glen Burtnik)



Somewhere in a scrap book

There's a rose you gave to me

And the photograph thats torn in half

And all thats left is me

Live happily ever after

That came after I was gone

And they tell you that you can't go back

Then why can't I go on?



When should be laughin` at this joke

Dressed up as love, diguised as hope

And isn't funny after all this time

A tear is fallin` when i should be laughin`



Sunsets are like a painting, windows like a frame

When night comes in and I begin

To see it all again



'Cuz i should be laughing at this joke

The damage done the words i spoke

And isn't funny after all this time

Regret can find me when I should be laughin`

I should laughin` at life

And all of the tricks that it plays

I should be laughing at time

And how fast its slippin` away



Somewhere in a scrap book

There's a rose you gave to me

And with one last look

I close the book

And let the past just be



When should be laughin` at this joke

Dressed up as love, diguised as hope

And isn't funny after all this time

A tear is fallin` when i should be laughin`
