HAPPINESS

Every evening when it is quiet
and the kids are finally asleep
You come to me
and it is getting close to midnight
and now we have some time
to enjoy each other for a while
Just to hold your hand
Very close
I call it happiness
To feel that you are close to me
That is what happiness is to me

To lie in bed and listen
To sounds you only hear at night
With your hand in mine
Yes, I think that is happiness
When you have someone you get to
Love a lot, like we do
To really know a friend
It is a gift
To feel the pulses race (lit.burn)
First make love, then go to sleep
That is what happiness is to me
