Questions Of Happiness
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
What is the name of your god?
Is the sun floating 'round a clock?
And does time really matter
Or matters matter time?
And who’s that in the mirror?
Who's that man with my face?
Don't you think that’s his smile
Just a little bit out of place?
And it's all so cruel and it's all so tight
To do or die, see you there on the other side
I missed you last night
Let me dream now!
And it's all so cruel and it's all so tight
To do or die, see you there on the other side
I missed you last night
Let me dream now!
There are so many questions
There are so many marks
There are so many reasons
But none of them good enough
But answers are rare
Because life just goes on
And it consumes all the answers
Well, in an act of mercy
And it's all so cruel and it's all so tight
To do or die, see you there on the other side
I missed you last night
Let me dream now!
And it's all so cruel and it’s all so tight
To do or die, see you there on the other side
I missed you last night
Let me dream now!
Nothing but dreaming
Sucking in, breathing in
The ice-cold sea water
Unquenchable thirst
Insatiable hunger
Swaying with the tide
Sheltered in sleep
Dream, silence
Rhythm, oblivion
This is how you drift
Day and night
Around you are myriads of others
Solitary
Glasslike
We drift towards and away from each other
Without nostalgia, sorrow or complaint
We know nothing of birth or death...
I’ve been sitting here a long time
Listening to the music and waiting for your arrival
And it is there
Where I now go...
I see you walking on a beach
In the beautiful moonlight
And the shells in the sand are answers
The sea has washed ashore
You know, the sea has the answers
And you smile like a goddess
You're too proud for all those answers
You look great and then
We go for a swim...
And it’s okay so cool and it's okay so tight
To do or die, see you there on the other side
I missed you last night
I missed you last night
I missed you last night
I missed you last night
Oh, let me dream now
Let me dream now
Oh, let me dream now
Oh, let me dream now
