When It Comes To Happiness

Oh, many times in my life

I wished I’d not walked down this road

But now I realize I wouldn’t be

Where I am today, Mmmm

Yes, there were many days in the past

Where I put on my back a heavy load

And gave the blame to anyone

Who seemed to get in my way

Chorus

Those days are over now

I don’t walk when I can run

And I don’t sit in the dark

When I can play in the sun

Or fashion obstacles

That can’t be overcome

When It comes to happiness, I am the one

I used to cling onto things

Out of fear and senseless desperation

But now I’m holding on to love and life so differently

I spent so many nights torturing myself

Caught between truth and imagination

Believing I only had to wait and good would come to me

Chorus

I used to moan and lament

Wondering why and where time went

But now I’m too busy sending back all this love raining down on me

I have sat carved in stone and all alone, foolish with reckless abandonment

When all I had to do was give a little bit of myself away

Chorus
