Makes Me Happy Lyrics - Earle Stacey

It's that every now and then 

That one given moment 

You say "please, don't let it end 

It's mine and I own it" 

Leaves my heart beating fast 

And, then, it all seems clear 

If I happen to ask 

"Oh God, what am I doing here?" 

I'll say that it makes me happy 

Oh, isn't that all that matters anyway 

As long as you can hear me laughing 

You know I have lived for one day 

Don't you forget it 

That's not why I'm in it 

No, that's not what that is for 

It's worth a whole lot more 

I can close my eyes, make it all go away 

Open them up when I'm ready to stay 

Keep those things there close in sight 

Especially those things I really like 

Day might just run for cover 

As the darkness rolls in with it's thunder 

But, I'll be all right as long as I can 

Simply walk over and turn on a light
