Leila Mass - Sad and Happy

Sadness crashed into my life
Like a tornado with no warning
When Christmas rolls around
And my whole family isn't there
Sadness works its way deep into my thoughts
Like a bitter piece if sugarless candy seeping into my tongue
When memories of what little I can remember from the divorce
Creep into my dreams, stealing my relaxation
And turning it into a restless night
But I have to keep in mind, happiness is just a smile away
And with that smile, my life becomes joyous again
