Sadness had been close as my next of kin
then happy came one day, chased my blues away
my life began when happy smiled
sweet, like candy to a child
stay here and love me just a while
let sadness see what happy does
let happy be where sadness was

happy, that’s you
you made my life brand new
lost as a little lam was i till you came in
my life began when happy smiled
sweet, like candy to a child
stay here and love me just a while
let sadness see what happy does
let happy be where sadness was
(till now)

where have i been?
what lifetime was i in?
suspended between time and space
lonely until happy came smiling up at me
sadness had no choice but to flee
i said a prayer so silently
let sadness see what happy does
let happy be where sadness was till now
