I am always trying to make the woman happy, but sometimes it just doesn't work.

Sounds like Jack Johnson getting funky with Todd Rundgren and Rob Thomas. Sad, yet full of hope. Sexy and determined in the delivery.

Lyrics
Lyrics for "My Heaven unplugged funky"
My Heaven
copyrighted by Alan Bennett
Hey, I feel lightnin' strikin' down
Fortune tellers and mystics
Predict
The coming of a day
When you'll slip away
But the heartache
Knows more than you'll ever say
I couldn't understand the fear
Terrified by my own creation
Who would know what to say or do?
Obviously neither me or you
Just believe in me anyway
Hey, it ain't your style
My would I have in my new fortune (????)
Don't you see that
I can build my whole life
around you?
Where you want to be
In my life
Doors are opening for you in
my heaven, yeah.
Ohhh, ohhh.
See you walkin' on pillows
See me walkin' on clouds
It's just a natural feeling
I bet.
When it's alright to feel
You can fake it
Did you never believe
That you'd make it?
This is time when you look at me
I'll somehow smile
And I'm keeping it to myself, yeah
Wonder if the flowers have not
Wilted on your shelf?
My would I have in my new fortune
Well don't you see that
I can build my whole life
around you
you...
Where you once had been in my life
Doors are opening for you in
my heaven
