I know that
this is too good
to be true.
I know that
this is not
going to last.
I know that
you have to leave
and I'll be alone.

But right now,
I am the happiest
I've been in a while.
Right now, I am not
going to hide my smile.
Right now, I'll just
thank my Lord,
and count my blessings
while they last.
