lyrics

he’s living in a champagne world
with those downtown girls, in a late night amore
thinking he can still keep score
but it’s no more
for his happiness is home
running them daydreams all through the morn
with the afternoon’s freedoms, but they’re all his own
early in the eve, all together alone
before the bubbles foam
and his happiness is home

she’s living in a fellini scene
in a black and white picture, on a transparent screen
with his arms all around her and her lips no longer seen
that affair almost known
but it lives no longer
for her happiness is home
with two little ones, still to grow
and a husband who is still to show
at that late night apartment, where all her friends know
where that young man glows
but she’ll give him no throne
for her happiness is home

he’s remembering that excursion of that afternoon delight
that bittersweet diversion
so many years of the same romance
that average trance
wishing he had not flown
but no one knows
for his happiness is home
what would she think? what would she do?
the answers are never to be true
knowing now, he’ll never ‘gain roam
from the love in her eyes
for his happiness is home

he’s traveling and he’s blasting that music
those girls down in texas, those girls out in massachusetts
his wife in missouri, oh what she could know
but she’ll never leave him
for her happiness is home
now he’s out there, yeah he’s out there
and he might bend a vow or two or four
but he’ll keep on coming back
you see it never ends
with all the love that she’s shown
and his happiness is home
