lyrics

I walked down the street
and I was met with some confrontation
I wondered why he had a problem with me

was there something strange that he saw
that I did not see
I wondered what was wrong with me

when I went into the building
and they turned their heads
and they stared at me
and I felt so weird
I wondered what was wrong with me
won't you tell me
what is wrong with me

oh my darling
hold me tight
'cause I might want to go out tonight
and do something that I might not
feel too good about tomorrow
would you have a life full of pain and sorrow
would you have a life of joy, of joy
of joy, yes

would you live with me
in a house of joy
