Happy Home
Unveiling the Sacrifices of a Mother's Journey in 'Happy Home'
Lyrics
I remember the pain in my mother's eyes,
I recall witnessing the pain reflected in my mother's eyes.
I remember the pain of her compromise years ago.
I recall the agony she endured from a decision she made many years ago.
I always wanted to help to make it go away,
I always wished to assist in alleviating her pain.
I didn't know it was her freedom that she needed so.
I didn't realize that what she truly needed was her own freedom.
And she said to me, she said to me:
And she communicated to me, she conveyed to me:
He hitch-hiked to Maine,
He traveled by hitchhiking to Maine,
We went cross-country.
We journeyed across the country together.
I had to leave my home,
I was compelled to depart from my original home.
I had to raise a family
I had the responsibility of raising a family.
We did the best we could being so young,
We did our utmost as we were quite young,
We tried to hard to build a happy home.
We earnestly attempted to construct a joyful and content home.
I never knew what to say to anybody,
I felt uncertain about what to express to anyone,
I didn't know what to do, I was far too young.
I was inexperienced and unsure, being too young at the time.
But everybody could feel the suffocation,
However, everyone could sense the stifling atmosphere,
Underneath for facade of a happy home.
Beneath the outward appearance of a cheerful household.
And she said to me, she said to me:
And she conveyed to me, she expressed to me:

Home sweet freedom, flowing in my eyes,
The feeling of freedom, akin to home, resonated within me,
Home sweet freedom, flowing in my mind.
The sense of liberation and freedom echoed in my thoughts.
Sacrificed her dreams to motherhood,
She gave up her aspirations for motherhood,
Waiting and waiting to be understood fully.
Anticipating and longing to be completely understood.
Sacrificed her years to the family,
She sacrificed her years for the sake of the family,
Waiting and waiting to be heard finally.
Waiting and yearning to finally be heard.
And she said to me, she said to me
And she communicated to me, she conveyed to me:
