The one that took your happiness away wasn't me.
It was the one you thought would make you happy.

The one that created this fantasy of a better world wasn't me.
It was the one that exposes you to the truth of reality.
It takes two to create happiness.
And God knows I did my best.

Now, everyone wants joy, peace, and happiness.
But this wasn't apart of your agenda.

I wasn't the one that made you have regrets.
That was them.
So blame them for your sadness of expression.

I'm just the messenger.

You keep telling, you love me.
And forever will.
You keep saying that you're sorry.
And in need of me.

But what you want?
I don't need.
What I need?
You don't want.
Will we ever, ever agree?

You keep telling me, I make you happy.
And always do.
You keep telling me I'm everything you need.
But this I just don't see.

But what I hope for?
You on a different page.
What you required?
Isn't coming from me?
Will we ever be on the same page?

Some love to kick it.
Forget all about the thrills and joy and happiness.
But for what love is worth?
It's priceless.

Where else?
Can you embrace it?
Even trace it back to the path that left an impression.
For what love is worth?
It's miraculous.

How?
Can you not be impressed?
Love only meant for those willing to pass the test.

Hello, today.
Goodbye to tomorrow.
It's time to leave behind the baggage and sorrow.
And face my happiness today.

I deserve it.
I earned it.
And all of what I've been through?

So say, hello today.
And goodbye to tomorrow.
For total joy, I seek and determine to find.

I deserve it.
I earned it.
And eventually will be apart of it.

So, you love me.
What next?
Should we explore this?
Or just let it fade into a dream.
A lost fantasy.

Yes, I love you.
Knew for awhile.
Although living in denial.
So what next?
Should we go into this endeavor?
Or leave it in our imagination of what could have been?

Because there is nothing better than just friends.

And then we never have to wonder about what next?

In Jesus' shoes, we should walk.
Follow his path to a better joy.
Stand up for justice from those down.

Confront those trying to destroy us.
Yes, in Jesus' shoes, we should go.
Make happiness an overflow.

Sure, we will face war, strife, and conflicts.
But again, in the end, we find this journey to great bliss.
And soak into nothing but comfortability.

We are empowered by his story.
But power always outweighs the fear.

You are loved.
They say they see it in your eyes.
That you are loved.
And for me, that is no big surprise.
That you are loved.

I pledged to you my sworn word that this is exactly what I do?
Dry your eyes, when you cry?
Hold you close, when you are in pain?

Yes, you are loved.
Folks say that they see in clear within your eyes.
That you are loved.
And for me, that comes as no surprise.
That you are loved.

I pledge to keep you warm when you are cold?
And if ever in need of more just let me know?
I am here for you forever to grow old.

So you are loved.
Many say they see in all within my eyes.
That I am just one truly wonderful, guy.
Cause you are loved.

Yes, you loved and so am I.
They say they see this message within our eyes.
