How Little We Need To Be Happy - David Sylvian

作词：David Sylvian/Derek Bailey

作曲：David Sylvian/Derek Bailey

She fell

No jewels for the hurt

When she fell

Where is the mother

Draw back the sheets

Shake off the sleep and complete me

As I complete you

There's a universe of disappointment to be lost

How little we need to be happy

How little we need to be really happy

And you my girl

Did I forget to sing

You brimming with life and with joy

And curiousity

And the lights won't go out

The stars refuse to dim

And everything goes on but not as before

They removed his voice

And the silence overwhelmed him

How little it takes

Some of us are undecided

We might come to you

To find a new way out of this one

She should pull us through

What have they done to you

Come here let me hold you

Cry all your tears

The sorrows that threaten to overwhelm you

Let's rise up again
