Highway to Happiness

Dogs bring happiness into your home,
Nothing on this planet can replace the special moments you create with your dog.

They bring memories to cherish,
These memories may be a part of the past
However, in my head they'll always last,
I can share these memories with the world
And let the world know what my dogs mean to me
And by sharing these special times with you
I can make the rest of the world see what happiness means to me

This is what happiness means to me…

So …
As the moon shines bright up in the sky
I sit below and think about all the happy memories that flew by
These memories have passed
But in But in my head they'll always last
Even though they came and went so fast
And they are a part of my past
I'd shown the world by sharing them with you
What happiness means to me
Believe it or not, I made you all see
What happiness means to me
