|
You rest your heart, you rest your head. |
|
You have the softest bed |
|
You need it's familiarity |
|
It's very nice. You like the warmth. |
|
You've been in other beds before, |
|
But disregard their similarity |
|
You may be bored |
|
The only flaw |
|
As far as you can see |
|
And when that calm descends, |
|
It's almost as good as happiness |
|
When that calm descends, |
|
It's almost as good as happiness |
|
You drift away, well no one said |
|
That you should look ahead |
|
You're not supposed to lie there all day long |
|
It's a love that you maintain |
|
There's none of it in vain |
|
These easy sacrifices are not wrong |
|
Though they're ignored, |
|
You're forgotten |
|
But you're not gone |
|
And when that calm descends, |
|
It's almost as good as happiness |
|
When that calm descends, |
|
It's almost as good as happiness |
|
Then one day when she has gone |
|
And you can love no one, |
|
It may be even easier that way. |
|
To lie alone and watch the sky |
|
Or watch the world go by |
|
To pass the time that passes anyway. |
|
And when that calm descends, |
|
It's almost as good as happiness |
|
When that calm descends, |
|
It's almost as good as happiness |
|
Almost as good as happiness |
|
Almost as good as happiness |
