Happiness

Lyrics
[CLARA] I'm so happy I'm afraid I'll die Here in your arms What would you do If I died Like this— Right now Here in your arms? That we ever should have met Is a miracle— [GIORGIO] No, inevitable— [CLARA] Then inevitable, yes But I confess It was the look— [GIORGIO] The look? [CLARA] The sadness in your eyes That day When we glanced At each other in the park [GIORGIO] We were both unhappy [CLARA] Unhappiness can be seductive [GIORGIO] You pitied me [CLARA & GIORGIO] How quickly pity leads to lovе [CLARA] All this happiness Merely from a glancе in the park So much happiness So much love [GIORGIO] I thought I knew what love was [CLARA] I wish we might have met so much sooner I could have given you— [GIORGIO] I thought I knew what love was [CLARA] —My youth [GIORGIO] I thought I knew how much I could feel [CLARA] All the time we lost... [GIORGIO] I didn't know what love was [CLARA] I've never known what love was [GIORGIO] But now— [CLARA] And now— [CLARA & GIORGIO] — I do It's what I feel with you The happiness I feel with you [CLARA] So much happiness— [GIORGIO] You are so beautiful... [CLARA] —Happening by chance In a park [GIORGIO] Not by chance By necessity— [CLARA] Surely, this is happiness— [GIORGIO] By the sadness that we saw In each other [CLARA] —No one else Has ever felt before! [CLARA & GIORGIO] Just another love story That's what they would claim Another simple love story— Aren't all of them the same? [CLARA] No, but this is more We feel more! [CLARA & GIORGIO] This is so much more! Like every other love story Some say happiness Comes and goes Then this happiness Is a kind of happiness No one really knows [GIORGIO] I thought I knew what love was [CLARA] I'd only heard what love was [GIORGIO] I thought it was no more than a name For yearning [CLARA] I thought it was what kindness became [GIORGIO] I'm learning— [CLARA] I thought where there was love there was shame [GIORGIO] —That with you— [CLARA] But with you— [BOTH] —There's just happiness [CLARA] Endless happiness...
