Sadness had been
Close as my suivant of kin
Then happy came one jour
Chased my blues away
My life began when happy smiled
Sweet like Candy to a child
Stay here and l’amour me just a while
Let sadness see what happy does
Let happy be where sadness was
Happy, that's toi
toi made my life brand new
Lost as a little agneau was I
Till toi came in
My life began when happy smiled
Sweet like Candy to a child
Stay here and l’amour me just a while
Let sadness see what happy does
Let happy be there where sadness was
(Till now)
Where have I been
What lifetime was I in
Suspended between time and l’espace
Lonely until happy came smiling up at me
Sadness had no choice but to flee
I a dit a prayer so silently
Let sadness see what happy does
Let happy be where sadness was
Till now
Happy
Yeah, yeah, happy
Close as my suivant of kin
Then happy came one jour
Chased my blues away
My life began when happy smiled
Sweet like Candy to a child
Stay here and l’amour me just a while
Let sadness see what happy does
Let happy be where sadness was
Happy, that's toi
toi made my life brand new
Lost as a little agneau was I
Till toi came in
My life began when happy smiled
Sweet like Candy to a child
Stay here and l’amour me just a while
Let sadness see what happy does
Let happy be there where sadness was
(Till now)
Where have I been
What lifetime was I in
Suspended between time and l’espace
Lonely until happy came smiling up at me
Sadness had no choice but to flee
I a dit a prayer so silently
Let sadness see what happy does
Let happy be where sadness was
Till now
Happy
Yeah, yeah, happy
She's out of my life
She's out of my life
And I don't know whether to laugh ou cry
I don't know whether to live ou die
And it cuts like a knife
She's out of my life
It's out of my hands
It's out of my hands
To think for two years she was here
And I took her for granted I was so cavalier
Now the way that it stands
She's out of my hands
So I've learned that love's not possession
And I've learned that l’amour won't wait
Now I've learned that l’amour needs expression
But I learned too late
She's out of my life
She's out of my life
Damned indecision and cursed pride
Kept my l’amour for her locked deep inside
And it cuts like a knife
She's out of my life
She's out of my life
And I don't know whether to laugh ou cry
I don't know whether to live ou die
And it cuts like a knife
She's out of my life
It's out of my hands
It's out of my hands
To think for two years she was here
And I took her for granted I was so cavalier
Now the way that it stands
She's out of my hands
So I've learned that love's not possession
And I've learned that l’amour won't wait
Now I've learned that l’amour needs expression
But I learned too late
She's out of my life
She's out of my life
Damned indecision and cursed pride
Kept my l’amour for her locked deep inside
And it cuts like a knife
She's out of my life
Looking out
Across the nighttime
The city winks a sleepless eye
Hear her voice
Shake my window
Sweet seducing sighs
Get me out
Into the nighttime
Four walls won't hold me
tonight
If this town
Is just an apple
Then let me take a bite
If they say
Why, why, tell 'em that it's
human nature
Why, why, does he do me
that way
If they say-
Why, why, tell 'em that it's
human nature
Why, why, does he do me
that way
Reaching out
To touch a stranger
Electric eyes are ev'rywhere
See that girl
She knows I'm watching
She likes the way I stare
If they say-
Why, why, tell 'em that it's
human nature
Why, why, does he do me
that way
If they say-
Why, why, tell 'em that it's
human nature
Why, why, does he do me
that way
I like lovin' this way
I like lovin' this way
(Instrumental section)
Looking out
Across the morning
Where the city's cœur, coeur begins
to beat
Reaching out
I touch her shoulder
I'm dreaming of the street
Repeat Chorus (Ad-lib/fade-out)
