Happy

 The mood soars.

Curled up in blankets,
Curled up inside.
Sunlight on the outside.
Windows wide open.
The light illuminating the fullness
of my life.

Full of midnight travellers,
inspiration sleeting in!
Full of those gutsy gamblers,
betting all and winning big.
Full of those midnight riders,
inspiration sleeting in.

Where did that old creature go?
I looked around,
and I found that I didn't know.

There's a bowl of simple breakfast,
There's a cat with an air of disdain.
There's the sound of a woman laughing,
and there's the sound of the last packed train.

Call me a gutsy gambler
Say he leads a restless life.
Call me a midnight rider
Sleeting in with the darkness of the night
 Call me a gutsy gambler.
Say he led a restless life.
Call me in the nighttime silence,
And I'll be smiling...

in the simple joy of life.
