Happy…If Only For Now
I.
You sleep so soft beside me
My hand caressing your hair
I whisper forever, I’m your key
To the fated dawn of a new destiny
I’ll comfort you, be your bed
And you’ll drive me to places we’ll go
Holding hands atop our heads
Smiling like time were our own
CHORUS
And, baby, when I kissed you
Never ever doubt me again
If you fear the days anew
I’ll be lying here in our den
And, baby, when I kissed you
Never ever tear dreams again
If you feel this way, don’t adieu
‘Cause tonight, we’re the luckiest men
II.
Your “hi’s” can melt my eyes
Your voice cradles me to sleep
In movies, I’ve seen you thrice
Can’t seem to get you out of my mind
I slap myself, how luck am I
To be with someone like you right now
And until we say good night,
To you, then and now, my heart will bow.
REPEAT CHORUS
BRIDGE
And I just want to hold you
Just once ’til you leave
Because when you’re gone, baby
I cry.
I cry.
REPEAT CHORUS

CARD DRAWN:
TEN OF CUPS
THIS IS THE TAROT CHALLENGE, a 78-day writing challenge where everyday I pick out a random card from my tarot deck and write something about, against, inspired by, based on the card by the day’s end. The works can range from poetry to fiction to drama. When the card is from the major arcana, the title of the work should be the card name. When the card is from the minor arcana, the title can be different but the card drawn should be revealed at the end.
