Seven  weeks have passed now since  she left me
She  shows her face to ask  me how I am
She  says the kids are fine, that  they miss me
Maybe  I could come, baby-sit  sometime
She  says, "are you o.k? I  was worried about you.
"Can  you forgive me? I  hope that you'll be happy."
I'm  so happy  that I can't stop crying
I'm  so happy I'm laughing  through my tears
I  saw a friend of mine. he said, "I  was worried about you
I  heard she had another man, I wondered  how you felt  about it
 I said, I'm  so happy  that I can't stop crying
I'm  so happy I'm laughing  through my tears
Saw  my lawyer, Mr.  good news, he got me
Joint  custody and legal  separ-ation
I'm  so happy that I can't  stop crying
I'm  laughing through my tears,
I'm  laughing through my tears
I  took a walk alone last night.  I looked up at the
stars.  To try to find an answer in  my life
I  chose a star for me, I chose  a star for him
I  chose two stars for my kids and one  star for my wife
Something  made me smile.
Something  seemed to ease the pain
Something  about the universe and how  it's all connected
 The  park is full of sunday fathers, and melted  ice cream
We  try to do the best, within the givin  time
A  kid should be with his mother, everybody  knows that
What  can a father do but baby-sit  some-times?
I  saw that friend of mine, he said, "you  look different somehow."
I  said, "everybody's got to leave  this darkness sometime."  I say
I'm  so happy that I  can't stop crying,
 Laughing through my tears,
 Laughing through my tears
I'm  so happy that I  can't stop crying
 Laughing through my tears,
 Laughing through my tears
