What I searched in the stars
I found in the meadows
What I searched in the dark
I found in the shadows

There was no magic
Yet I could feel a weird spell
Darkness was abundant
Yet there was light I could tell

In that loneliest of corner
There was a light of truth
As the realization dawned
There was no reason to remain aloof

Because happiness was right there
It wasn’t far as those stars
It was the only ointment
Which could cure all those scars

"You don't need the moon and stars to have happiness. It's right there in your backyard. You just need to find it."
