Finding Happiness
Finding Happiness
When you wish upon a star
Wishes are supposed to come true
So many times I wished for happiness
Dreamed of just laughing and smiling
All for no reason
But my wishes were never answered
They just drifted off into space
Lost forever to infinity
Yet, I still had hope
After looking a lifetime
I did find a spark of hope
The secret I had been looking for
Living my life for
It was hidden in a secret place
Inside a box of chocolate chip cookies
Just one single cookie with a cold milk
Showed me complete happiness
Happiness I knew existed but could never find
All I needed to be forever happy
Would be the ninety-nine cents for a pack
But for now, I must wait
Because fate has cursed me all over again
I only have ninety-eight cents
Just my luck
Maybe after all of that I will wish upon a star
And maybe it will give me a penny
But, alas, I didn’t get that either
