lyrics

Rather Be Miserable

I’d rather be miserable with you
Than simply happy with someone new
What I feel, it must be real
No one can make me so blue
I’d rather be miserable with you

I’d rather be living here with you
And all the stuff that we go through
What I feel here is so familiar
Only your body will do
I’d rather be miserable with you

Even when you’re wearing a frown
And even when you won’t make a sound
You’re still a beauty, you see right through me
No one has got me so down
This is what I’ve found

And when you blow your top
They can hear us up and down the block
Before you knew me there was nothing to me
Now you keep me hard as a rock
And we don’t have to talk

I’d rather be miserable with you
Than starting over with who knows who
When we’re together I’m never better
Not after all we’ve been through
I’d rather be miserable with you

And if you’re miserable, too
Think of us as one of the lucky few
I hope you feel the way I feel
I hope that my body will do
I’d rather be miserable with you

John D. Lamb Detroit, Michigan

Lamb spins a tale of love and woe full of true irony and forlorn humor…Lamb has given us a slice of life in which we find common ground, but is anything but commonplace…
