Happiness

Happiness is just outside my windowWould it crash blowing 80-miles an hour?Or is happiness a little more like knockingOn your door, and you just let it in?Happiness feels a lot like sorrowLet it be, you can't make it come or goBut you are gone- not for good but for nowGone for now feels a lot like gone for goodHappiness is a firecracker sitting on my headboardHappiness was never mine to holdCareful child, light the fuse and get away'Cause happiness throws a shower of sparksHappiness damn near destroys youBreaks your faith to pieces on the floorSo you tell yourself, that's enough for nowHappiness has a violent roarHappiness is like the old man told meLook for it, but you'll never find it allLet it go, live your life and leave itThen one day, wake up and she'll be homeHome, home, home
