Lyrics Unhappy Me - Mighty Sparrow

There is no gladness, only sadness
Whenever I reminisce
There is no gladness, only sadness
Whenever I reminisce
My childhood days were unhappy
I was an orphan from infancy
Meh mother died giving birth to me
And the grief killed meh poor Daddy

Unhappy me, trouble is all I see
Yes misery, trouble is all I see
But I'll keep on trying
I'll never give in
Behind every cloud there's a silver lining

Is there no ending to this suffering
I keep on wondering
I never feel glad, always so sad
Sometimes like ah going mad
Day in day out I'm so gloomy
Looking for someone to care for me
It looks as though I will have to end
Up in the street of forgotten men

Unhappy me, trouble is all I see
Yes misery, trouble is all I see
But I'll keep on trying
I'll never give in
Behind every cloud there's a silver lining

I got no family and I envy
Seeing people happy
Nobody to care, I think it's unfair
Life is too hard to bear
I catch myself time after time
Thinking to commit some kind of crime
But I know to mehself crime does not pay
And ah know things will change some day

Unhappy me, trouble is all I see
Yes misery, trouble is all I see
But I'll keep on trying
I'll never give in
Behind every cloud there's a silver lining

Really I don't know if I must stay so
I just cannot come or go
Although ah have faith, ah tired wait
But they say it's never too late
A fair break is all I'm thinking of
That's why I pray to the Lord above
For courage and to be of good cheer
You never get more than you could bear

Unhappy me, trouble is all I see
Yes misery, trouble is all I see
But I'll keep on trying
I'll never give in
Behind every cloud there's a silver lining
