It Was Happiness Lyrics

We had the stars they kept shining
Where they led us we followed
Two for love, wandering
I look back here's what I see
We were outside
There was Paris
It was raining
And we felt everything
In a crowded street in London
Happiness and we were so alive
And your soul was a wide and deep blue sea
I would drown and you'd rescue me
And we lived our life like a story
Clear to the ending
It was happiness, so clear happiness
Happiness, no tear happiness
Can't keep time from its running

Soon the best times are over
Photographs hold me
And I see how good we were
There was that day out in Carmel, California
With no clothes in the sun
In a crowded street in London
Happiness and then it all goes by
So I drink to the past and what still will be
One day I'll be a memory
But I lived my life like a story
Too bad there's an ending
