Happy Man

I wouldn't trade you for a million dollars,
But I would trade you for a pound,
Money can't buy happiness,
But a pound is a lovely sound,
Oh how I love to hear your heartbeat,
I'd love to trade you mine for yours,
And together we can make a melody,
And listen to it for hours.

I would never take you for granted,
But I would grant you all I have,
And if you will grant me your heartache,
Then I will put it all in a bag,
I would drown it in the river of sorrow,
And resurrect it from the river of dreams,
And that river of dreams I will follow,
Until it brings me back to thee.

If I could be the sun for a while,
Then I would shine on you all day,
And give you my warmest smile,
To chase all your sadness away,
I'd warm your heart with sunny love,
Then when it came time for me to set,
I'd climb down from the sky above,
And set down on your bed.

When you want a little peace and quiet,
Then I'll give you perfect silence,
And when you just want to talk for a while,
I'll talk sweet words of solace.
You mean everything in the world to me,
So I'll give you everything I can,
And if I can only influence your dreams,
Then I'll be a happy man.
