...I need you to be happy, I need you always.
now, tomorrow, and till the end of days.
I need you to be happy, for my sake,
and for yourself, every day you wake.
For if you are not happy, I cannot sleep,
for my half-heart you complete.
I see butterfly's, up above in the sky they reel,
that is how you make my tummy feel.
At night I check under my bed for the Boogie-Man,
but my dreams are of you so fine and so grand.
If I can't hear your heartbeat you're to faraway,
I need you to stay and heal my scars today.
The sky darkens when you're gloomy,
but I'll make you better if you make room for me.
When you can't help but cry,
I'll see you, stop, and cry alongside.
I will give you my heart, trust you wont brake it,
but I understand if you let it slip.
I don't care if you can't always love me,
It don't matter cuz you're the only one I see.
I tell all the flowers they should meet my love,
I shout your name to the birds above.
I keep a jar of honey so I can say "Honey I'm home."
and I pretend it greats me in your tone.
I think you're sweet, enough so to sweeten my tea,
and I would love you even more if my heart would let me.
If my eyes could not see you they would melt,
I need you to see what I have felt.
If I could not feel you I would no longer feel,
so please touch me so that I may heal.
If I could not smell you there'd be no spice,
with you I need to spend my life.
If I could not taste you the world would be bitter,
I won't give up on you, I'm not a quitter.
If I did not hear you I would miss you,
I need to see, feel, smell, hear, and taste you.
I need you to be happy, K?
a happy life we will role-play.
You need to be happy, K?
yesterday, today, and everyday.
You will be happy, K?
for by your side I will stay.
