Happiness
Abi Tucker Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

The storm was sudden.I can see it in your eyes
You′ve gotta burning star to make
Almost certain, it won't happen overnight
But it′s where you'll find the rest

If love breaks down in the city
You've gotta learn to live it, or love it
You′ll be fine in the city
Cause you′ve gotta lot to give it
It's all in your hands

But if you play life like a role
No one will believe you
When you don′t play life like a role
You gotta claim your happiness
Love will come meet you at your best
Claim your happiness

Cause life is alive when there's happiness
Happiness in you and me
And baby, baby we can both find sweet happiness
Happiness within

And when you′re reaching out.Reaching out
Baby I will give you all I have to give
Cause happiness can be found
When you're giving it all
And you always bring happiness to me

You lift away the blind spot
In the corner of your mind
And you see those stars again
Here, is where time starts
I can see it in your eyes
The storm has broken

Love looks fine in the city
You′re going out to give it all you can
Freedom is alive when you live it
You've got a live to begin with
It's all in your hands

Cause life is alive when there′s happiness
Happiness in you and me
And baby, baby we can both find sweet happiness
Happiness within

Cause life is alive when there′s happiness
Happiness in you and me
And baby, baby we can both find sweet happiness
Happiness within

And when you're reaching out.Reaching out
Baby I will give you all I have to give
Cause happiness can be found




When you′re giving it all
And you always bring happiness to me
