“Happiest of All”
Like when I'm streaking across the lawn And I'm hoping - yeah, I'm hoping - that before the moment's gone, That you'll take a peek (if just a peek) - I left the windows open So you can see me running by (My my my!) Like when I'm smiling at the sky And there's no birds, there's no planes - and there's no clouds there rolling by I'm just smiling (I'm smiling) - happy to be alive And that's when you turn your glance my way -- to see that… I'm the happiest - I'm the happiest of all When you're with me, I'm the happiest of all I'm the happiest of all Like when I hear you sing my songs And you're screaming, and you're laughing - and you're fearing it went wrong But inside (inside) - I'm on the verge of tears myself You can't imagine how good that feels Like when we stay up half the night Coming up with the strangest jokes that ever did come down the pike So stop me now (if you've heard, somehow) - the one about the priest and the rabbi And there was something about a homosexual boy scout troop And sure, there's times that don't feel so good to me Like every morning, when I wake up - and there's no one next to me And I'd cry (I would sigh) - but I really don't see the point to that Sometimes that's just the way things go Like when I call you on the phone And no one answers; no one picks up - well, I guess there's no one home But I keep trying (keep trying) - I've got to get through to you Because when I do, I'm on the top of the world!
