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, love me just a while Let sadness see what happy does Let happy be where sadness was [Verse 2] Sadness, go away Happy, won't you stay? Happy, that's you You made my life brand new Lost as a little lamb was I 'Til you happened back [Chorus] My life began when happy smiled Sweet, like candy to a child Stay here, love me just a while Let sadness see what happy does Let happy be where sadness was Where have I been? What lifetime was I in? Suspended between time and space Going no place My life began when happy smiled Sweet, like candy to a child Why don't you stay right here and love me just a while? Why don't you stay right here and love me just a while? Stay right here, stay right here and love me just a while Let sadness see what happy does Let happy be where sadness was 'Til now Happy, you make me happy, yeah Happy, you make me happy Sadness, go away Happy, happy, won't you stay, stay? Stay, stay, happy, oh yeah, oh yeah Stay, oh yeah, oh yeah Stay, stay, stay, stay happy Stay baby, stay, so stay You make me happy, happy
