The Compass of Happiness

One, two, three and four
Count what you have now, don't count what you don't have
Count what you have now, don't count what you don't have
Find that you have so much

I got tired of trying too hard and suddenly felt like crying in the midnight bathroom
Feeling like there's happiness I haven't yet grasped somewhere, I rush
It must be because of my age
I've lived happily on my own and have no regrets, but
Like a cloudy mirror, I can't see tomorrow

(Can't you see? Can't you see?)
Freedom and loneliness come as a set, the more carefree, the more loneliness comes along
(Don't you know? Don't you know?)
If the grass looks greener on the other side, then I should plant flowers in my own garden

Count what you have now, don't count what you don't have
Find that you have so much

While everyone is lost, asking for what they don't have, even as adults
Just noticing a beautiful flower blooming at your feet can make people happy
If someday I can get through the maze of dilemmas in my heart
The day will surely come when I truly understand what's important

(Can't you see? Can't you see?)
No matter which path you choose, the same number of worries will follow
(You can choose you can choose)
My priorities are mine to decide, what to take and what to give up

(Can't you see? Can't you see?)
The standard of happiness is a personal measure, it lies within your own heart
(You can find you can find)
Instead of counting what's missing, try counting what you already have
Count what you have now, don't count what you don't have

Count what you have now
Don't count what you don't have
Find that you have so much
