Happiness

Happiness is just outside my window
I thought it'd crash, blowing eighty miles an hour
But happiness is a little more like knocking 
On your door, you just let it in

Happiness feels a lot like sorrow
Let it be, you can't make it come or go
But you are gone, not for good but for now
And gone for now feels a lot like gone for good

Happiness is a firecracker sitting on my headboard
Happiness was never mine to hold
Careful child, light the fuse and get away
Cause happiness throws a shower of sparks

Happiness damn near destroys you
Breaks your faith to pieces on the floor
So you tell yourself that's enough for now
But happiness has a violent roar

Happiness, it's like the old man told me
Look for it and you'll never find it all
But let it go, live your live and leave it
Then one day you'll wake up and he'll be home

Home, he'll be, he'll be, he'll be home
He'll be home, he'll be home, he'll be home
He will be home, he'll be home, he'll be home
He'll be home, He'll be...
