Happiness

*Happy: Describes a general feeling of well being. If you are happy, you may feel good about something you have done or seen or something that happened to you.*

I thought I knew what happiness was,
but perhaps I've been mistaken.
It seems so easy, so simple, so free,
why is it so hard to find?

It disappears so quickly,
gone in the blink of an eye.
Yet we continue to search,
for that one spark we can't see.

Like searching in the darkness,
for a button in a haystack.
But the haystack is filled
with needles that poke until we bleed.

We don't give up on that one chance,
no matter how small it may be.
If we can find that button,
we'll find a bit of happiness.

I think I've found that button,
but it's just out of my grasp.
So close yet so far away,
the rain begins to fall.

The water and tears block the sight of that button,
forever lost in the haystack of needles.
Why should I keep looking?
Why can't I just give up?

'Cuz giving up is stupid,
what's the real point in that?
You can find the button,
when the storm passes over.

Don't say goodbye,
it's my least favorite word.
Don't say you're going to go now,
I want you here with me.

Even if I find another,
I'll still remember you.
Happiness is for everyone,
so reach out a little further
and hold on tight when you get it.

It goes by so quick it's scary,
but it's not hard to see.
When you have someone next to you,
happiness is as clear as the blue sky above.

Look, it has stopped raining,
the sun shines brightly in the sky.
A cloudless day filled with happiness,
so please don't leave me be.

I can't keep on smiling,
I can't be free.
I can't say goodbye,
when I'm so deeply in love with thee.
