Happiness

Happiness

I met a pilgrim on the road

Who said that he could lead us to

A place called Happiness

And he believed if we could leave

All earthly goods behind

That we would finally all be blessed

And as he led us up another hill

He ducked into a shed

Then he drove out on a Harley

Gave a shout to raise the dead

Happiness is just a state of mind

The blind leading the blind

Happiness is teaching us to leave the past behind

Happiness once had us on our knees

Now we do as we please

Happiness, happiness (is on our side)

I met a woman pushing 95

She had a twinkle in her eye

A tenderness

She’d seen too many wars

And lost a kid to heroin

Ah but none the less

She sang songs that were so blue

They’d never fail to make you weep

She smiled and said it’s all a dream

You wake up when you sleep

Happiness is a four-letter word

That’s lost in love and lust

Happiness is somewhere on the wind and in the dust

Happiness is what we all live for

We’d die to make it real

Happiness, happiness is on our side

She said no one else can ever make you happy

Only you can make it real

But try to help another feel that way

See what is revealed

Happiness
