Marin Mazzie & Jere Shea - Happiness Songtexte

Songtexte Happiness - Marin Mazzie & Jere Shea




Clara: I′m so happy I'm afraid I′ll die
Here in your arms
What would you do if I died
Like this, right now, here in your arms?
That ever should have met is a miracle.
Giorgio: No, inevitable.
Clara: Then inevitable, yes, but I confess it was the look.
Giorgio: The look?
Clara: The sadness in your eyes that day when we glanced at each other. We were both-
Giorgio: We were both unhappy.
Clara: Unhappiness can be seductive.
Giorgio: You pitied me.
Clara: How quickly pity leads to love.
All this happiness
Merely from a glance in the park
So much happiness
So much love
Giorgio: I thought I knew what love was.
Clara: I wish we might have met so much sooner. I could have given you-
Giorgio: I thought I knew what love was.
Clara: -my youth.
Giorgio: I thought I knew how much I could feel.
Clara: All the time we lost.
Giorgio: I didn't know what love was-
Clara: I've never known what love was-
Giorgio: -and now I do.
Clara: -but now I do.
Both: It′s what I feel with you
The happiness I feel with you
Clara: So much happiness
Giorgio: You are so beautiful
Clara: Happening by chance in a park
Giorgio: Not by chance, by necessity
Clara: Surely this is happiness
Giorgio: By the sadness that we saw in each other
Clara: No one else has ever felt before
Both: Just another love story
That′s what they would claim
Another simple love story
Aren't all of them the same?
Clara: No, but this is more
We feel more
Both: This is so much more
Like every other love story
Clara: Some say happiness comes and goes
Then this happiness is a kind of happiness no one really knows
Giorgio: I thought I knew what love was
Clara: I′d only heard what love was
Giorgio: I thought it was no more than a name for yearning
Clara: I thought it was what kindness became
Giorgio: I'm learning
Clara: I thought where there was love there was shame
Giorgio: That with you-
Clara: But with you-
Both: There′s just happiness
Clara: Endless happiness
