MARILLION - Happiness Is The Road lyrics

rate me

The greatest blessing that we have

Is the dawn of each new day

A chance to finish what we started

And made a mess of yesterday

As day comes out of night

A chance to get it right

A chance to start again

A chance to get it right

The people here

Full of love and comfortable in themselves

Not scared to let go

No fear round here

I met this man

In Utrecht Netherlands

He was a doctor of the body and the soul

He said to me:

Man, there's a book you have to read.

I feel your pain. It makes me cry

But these tears are yours - not mine.

You're focusing on all of your bad yesterdays

The worry lines are getting deeper every day

And deep inside you

No surprise - there's a crisis!

You might have been to blame

But you can't go on this way

Must I watch and pray?

While you torture yourself with what's behind ya

Torture yourself with what awaits ya

Draggin' that guilt and regret inside ya

Anxious of the goals that always evade ya

Your mind will find a way to be unkind to you somehow

But all we really have is happening to us right now

HAPPINESS IS THE ROAD

And each baby..

A human sunrise

Each baby - a human sunrise..

Look around you

Feel your soul inside you

Look inside you

Feel the life course through you

The life that's giving In every thing that's living

The plants and the trees

The birds and the bees

And apes like you and me

HAPPINESS IS THE ROAD

You're a slave to your mind

But you are not your mind

You are not your pain

Say it again

You are not your pain

Say it again

You are not your pain

Happiness aint at the end of the road

Happiness aint at the end of the road

Happiness IS the road

The road

HAPPINESS IS THE ROAD
