What Makes You Happy Lyrics - Whitechocolatespaceegg - Liz Phair

But don't worry, mom, I met him in a restaurant 

And all this time I've been getting to know him 

He's got an ex-wife in pasadena 

And sometimes she's a mess to deal with 

But mostly we've been living here uninjured 

There's a silence, and she says 

"Listen here young lady 

All that matter is what makes you happy 

But you leave this house knowing my opinion 

Won't make you love me if you don't care to." 

But mom, I'm sending you this photograph 

I swear this one is going to last 

And all those other bastards were only practice 

I feel the sun on my back 

I smell the earth in my skin 

I see the sky above me like a full recovery 

"Listen here young lady 

All that matter is what makes you happy 

But you leave this house knowing my opinion 

Won't make you love me if you don't care to." 

"Listen here young lady 

All that matter is what makes you happy 

But you leave this house knowing my opinion 

Won't make you love me if you don't care to." 

"Listen here young lady 

All that matter is what makes you happy 

But you leave this house knowing my opinion 

Won't make you love me if you don't care to." 

"Listen here young lady 

All that matter is what makes you happy 

But you leave this house knowing my opinion 

Won't make you love me if you don't care to."
