a few years ago I wrote several love songs. here is one of them. Its called "a glimpse of happiness". Looking back, I realize how much a force love is. How if we are not careful, it can grip us with its immense power, and actually drive us near insanity. Do not get me wrong, its wonderful to be "in love". It is like a drug that you cannot give up. Literally, when you find that someone special, you would literally want to spend every moment of your life with them. Its a wonderful wonderful feeling. You get inspired to look your best. perhaps even lose some weight. You want to buy clothes and be neat. You are motivated. You appreciate life more. Hmmm. Being in love is wonderful. But it can also be DANGEROUS. And I would have to agree that love, at the end of the day, should be more than a feeling. It should surpass emotions. There should be BALANCE. And most importantly, one should make sure that their happiness/joy in life not be DEPENDENT on that one person. I could talk for hours about this…Oh well…maybe more on that next time. In the meantime, here are the lyrics. This was certainly a point in my time when I was in that zone of being "in love". Whatever that means. Please feel free to comment or email me about what you think about my lyrics. I would definitely enjoy reading your feedback. Oh and perhaps one day, if I ever get enough mojo and muster enough courage, I might just post a "live" acoustic video of it in youtube. not that anyone really cares, haha. well..whatever.
A GLIMPSE OF HAPPINESS
I would do anything for you
Anything you say I’d gladly do
Close my eyes, think of you all day
You take my breath away
I know its all cliche
For you, saved me
From my loneliness
And you, gave me
A glimpse of happiness….
Unknown….before (yeah)
Can’t believe you calling out my name
Steroids for my brain I’ve gone insane
kind of dumb, having too much fun
Although I always knew, I’d come undone
For you, saved me
From my loneliness
And you, gave me
A glimpse of happiness….
Unknown….before (yeah)
