Happiness 1918

The poets are right when they say,
we live but a night and a day.
We long but for riches and gold
and miss joys and pleasure untold.
I care not for glory and fame
I seek not a time honored name.
'Tis love keeps the world going round
true happiness there I have found.

Two hearts that beat just as one,
two eyes as bright as the sun,
two lips that whisper to one:
"I love you best."
Sweet smile when ever you're nigh
sweet kiss when you say "Goodbye,"
True love no money can buy,
that's happiness.

Two hearts that beat just as one,
two eyes as bright as the sun,
two lips that whisper to one:
"I love you best."
Sweet smile when ever you're nigh
sweet kiss when you say "Goodbye,"
True love no money can buy,
that's happiness.

To know that someone waits for you,
to know that someone loves you too,
to know that you're never alone,
to know that someone is your own.
When friendship and fortune has fled,
two tender lips press'd mine and said:
All is not lost if you're here
I'm happy sweetheart if you're near.

Two hearts that beat just as one,
two eyes as bright as the sun,
two lips that whisper to one:
"I love you best."
Sweet smile when ever you're nigh
sweet kiss when you say "Goodbye,"
True love no money can buy,
that's happiness.

Two hearts that beat just as one,
two eyes as bright as the sun,
two lips that whisper to one:
"I love you best."
Sweet smile when ever you're nigh
sweet kiss when you say "Goodbye,"
True love no money can buy,
that's happiness.
