Lyrics

[Intro: Left Channel & (Right Channel)] (I, I can tell) I can tell I can tell by the ring of a bell (By the ring of a bell) A chime that is clear and true But if it's cracked (A chime that is clear and...) The sound is flat (A chime that is— a chime— a chime that is—) (A chime that is clear— a chime— a chime that is clear—) Like my happiness that's untrue (A chime that is clear— a chime that is clear and true) (True, true, true, true) (A chime that is clear and true— a chime that is clear and true—) (True, true, true, true) (But if it's cracked the sound is flat like) Out of the East, the sun flew west (Happiness that's become) Trailing (Has become untrue just like you— just like you) Trailing its golden spray (And you— and you— just like you) My heart burns, when fortune— (Just like you, like you) [Verse 1] Days go by, I watch the sky My eyes forever quest The sun returns, though my hope yearns Forever things point the rest, rest [Chorus] Sun heart burns, moon glow turns, stars will trade Hope for happiness, hope for happiness Hope for happiness, happiness, happiness [Verse 2] Flowers grow wild, just for the child Sniff this sprinkling bloom When you grow up, hope colours up The things that cause us gloom Tell can you now how fun is made? It's how happiness is really found Look for advice, be told more than twice By people all around [Chorus] Sun heart burns, moon glow turns, stars will trade Hope for happiness, hope for happiness Hope for happiness, happiness, happiness Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh [Instrumental Break] [Organ Solo] [Vocalisations] [Outro] Hope for happiness, hope for happiness Hope for happiness, happiness, happiness Hope for happiness, hope for happiness Hope for happiness, happiness, happiness
