Happy (Love Theme From ”Lady Sings The Blues”) lyrics

[Verse 1]
Sadness had been
Close as my next of kin
Then happy came one day
Chased my blues away

[Chorus]
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

[Verse 2]
Happy, that's you
You made my life brand new
Lost as a little lamb was I
'Til you came in

[Chorus]
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
('Til now)
[Verse 3]
Where have I been?
What lifetime was I in?
Suspended between time and space
Lonely until

[Chorus]
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
'Til now

[Outro]
Happy
Yeah, yeah, happy
La-la-la la, la la la la

Yeah, happy
Ooh, happy
La-la-la la, la la la la

Happy
Oh, yeah, happy
La-la-la la, la la la la
Happy
Ooh, happy
La-la-la la, la la la la
