Happpiness
4 November, 2005
Author: The Lost Girl
I heard that you existed,
Sometime long ago,
I guess I must’ve missed it,
When you said you had to go.
They say you’re still around here,
And you shine in others eyes,
Some say they feel you close and near,
But I guess it’s all just lies.
I thought I felt you one night,
In a breeze under the tree,
And I thought you said it’s alright,
So why have you let me?
I often reach for you,
When I’m crying all alone,
I often seek for something new,
But old pain is what I’m shown.
I used to hear your lovely sound,
When I spoke to a certain friend,
But this friend is separation bound,
And your voice, it now will end.
Happiness, I need you here,
I need your peaceful care.
Happiness, take away my fear,
Let me know that you are there.
