“Happiness” is a classic piano ballad, with radiant strings, in which Rex reflects on whether his feelings towards his special other will be reciprocated when he’s aged 81 “and forgetting things.”
[Verse 1]
I'll be the one that stays 'til the end
And I'll be the one that needs you again
And I'll be the one that proposes in a garden of roses
And truly loves you long after our curtain closes
[Chorus]
But will you still love me when nobody wants me around?
When I turn eighty-one and forget things, will you still be proud?
[Verse 2]
'Cause I am the one that's waited this long
And I am the one that might get it wrong
And I'll be the one that will love you the way I'm supposed to, girl, oh
[Chorus]
But will you still love me when nobody wants me around, around?
When I turn eighty-one and forget things, will you still be proud?
[Bridge]
Proud of me and my short list of accomplishments, say
And me and my lack of new news
Me and my selfishness, oh, me and myself
Wish you nothing but a happy new version of you
[Outro]
Because I
I, mmm
Mmm-mmm-mmm, mmm-mmm, yeah
I want you to tell me you find it hard to be yourself
So I can say it's gonna be alright, yeah
And I want you to love me the way you love your family
The way you love to show me what it's like
To be happy

It pretty much sums up Apricot Princess as a whole. I’ve recently been really lucky and found someone amazing for me and “Happiness” is simply about my core feelings on my relationship with her and how my life has been for the past year and a half.
