lyrics

Happiness
By Forrest Hill

Walking down this old road again
Talking to my demons when I can’t find a friend
Thinking I need more to find my way home
Frighten that I’m empty and just growing old

And you say, me and you, well that don’t make three
It’s not the things you have that can set you free
The more you want, the more you fear
That everything you covet has no meaning here

(Don’t you know that)
Happiness is an inside job
It’s the lightness of being
From the center of love
Happiness is not ours to control
So take your hopes and your sorrows
And let them all go, that’s freedom

I’ve read the scriptures, went searching for God
Tried to find love in the back of a car
Looking for something I can grasp on and hold
Watching the clock ticking, my spirits grow low

And you say, what in this moment don’t you understand?
All you need is right here in the palm of your hand
Life is short, so don’t wait long
Or you’ll wind up imprisoned by the same sad song.

(Don’t you know that)
Happiness is an inside job
It’s the lightness of being
From the center of love
Happiness is not ours to control
So take your joys and your sorrows
And let them all go, that’s freedom
