Happier

I felt the closing walls

Trouble on the rise

You didn't have to say a word

I saw it in your eyes

Opened up my soul

I showed a view inside

I'm not too proud

To say out loud

I'm happier, I cried

A shield of misty gray

We'll gladly leave behind

A restless youth

Gave way to truth

And now to peace of mind

We'll ride the wings of love

A maze of tears have gone

Good riddance to

The pain we knew

A new day's finally dawned

And I don't wanna run your life

I just wanna share a space

I just wanna be the one who puts

A smile upon your face

Friends will come and go

I don't mind if they do

The role they play

I'm sad to say

Is small compared to you

People will always talk

And I don't care, do you

Smaller minds you'll always find

Have nothing else to do

Oceans rise and fall

And meadows washed in rain

We cast aside the tears we cried

And lived to love again

I told you once before

I'll tell you once again

You make mistakes

That's what it takes

Life fools you now and then

I'm happier to find

That both of us could grow

Mistakes were made

So turn the page

Cuz life goes on, you know

I don't wanna run your life

I just wanna share a space

Let me be the one who puts

A smile upon your face

I'm happier to know

I'm happier to see

That open every door inside

Our lives will still be free

I don't wanna run your life

I just wanna share your space

I just wanna be the one who puts

A smile upon your face
