Happiness Greets Me

Happiness greets me at sunrise
Childrens' faces look right in
Lying on a hillside with my people
Make things right
Oceans of triumph passed by rivers
Kiss my heart as you smile
Thinking of the times and the places
(All) through the night
Times of passion
Days of praise
Fortune tellers begging for a raise
Always looking for different ways to carry through the days
Carry through the days
Once I was happy with you
Tie dye dress as you sun
Wishing for the times where dreams lived
By candlelight
Times of passion
Days of praise
Fortune tellers begging for a raise
Always looking for different ways to carry through the days
Carry through the days

Gold

Wake me up in the morning
While the day is still forming
Have a cup before it gets cold
And we’ll watch today unfold
For all I know
This is gold
And you can search around this world
For another
Thing in life so earthly pure
That leaves you wanting just a little more
There’s nothing like it, you can be sure
All it takes is a grain and a spark
To make something so preciously dark
A little alchemy filter
Each sip so strong and bitter
For all I know
This is gold
And you can search around this world
For another
Thing in life so earthly pure
That leaves you wanting just a little more
There’s nothing like it, you can be sure

A long time ago in a land far away
And this never happened, some might say
A boy named Kaldi lived with his goats
And every day followed them round
He played tunes on his pipe
One of them to tell the herd
When it was time to head home
One day Kaldi was ready to go
He played his tune but the goats didn’t come
So he had to look around and in the distance he heard
The sound of his goats in a lively mood
They were running and messily
Jumping and dancing
Like no one had seen before
Kaldi thought to himself
My goats must have been bewitched
This can only be the devil’s work
That’s when he saw
An unfamiliar tree
Covered in red shiny fruits
The goats kept coming back
For more berries and leaves
They never seemed to have enough
Was it heaven-sent
Or evil all along?
It wasn’t easy getting the goats back
But after a while he got them all in track
And soon after that they started acting normal
To Kaldi’s relief it wasn’t poisonous
And if the goats have enjoyed it so
Then why couldn’t Kaldi also give it a go
The following day, he tried it for himself
It tasted a little bitter, but he was feeling well
This magical tree is so kind to your brain
No one would ever feel tired or grouchy again

Maybe stay for some cake
or something warm
We can brew it
A special love of mine
A special love of mine
Come on its not too late
Its safe and dry
We can brew it
A special kind of ride
A special kind of ride
Everything else can wait
Don’t rush home
We can brew it
And savor it through the night
Savor it through the nights
We’ll leave everyone out there
I only think that’s fair
Outside is just too frosty
You better stay in here with some coffee
If you’re not warm enough
I can light the fire for us
Outside is just too breezy
We could make tonight so easy
Its early if we wanted to
Just wait until your lips touch the warm cup I poured you
And you’ll change your mind
You’ll change your mind
Come on and stay til late
Why be on your own?
If we brew it
Something special might arise

Instant Satisfaction!
02:16
|

Are you in need of a break, of a time-out
The spirit-lifting experience people are talking about
Something to make getting out of bed worthwhile
Work efficiently better, make everyone smile
No consequences, go indulge yourself
Have all at once what you’ve got stocked on the shelf
You’ve never tasted finer, now that’s a fact
Instant satisfaction or your money back
In the unlikely event that you don’t agree
Have we told you, you can get it for free?
The unmistakable, distinctly flavorsome
Quick, fresh, perfect every time
Tantalizingly hearty, it’s almost a crime
You’ve never tasted finer, now that’s a fact
Instant satisfaction or your money
back
