HAPPY (Joey Molland)
[from This Way Up CD - recorded 1998-2000 - released U.S. 2001]

I could believe in something
Don't take the floor away from me
I could be happy somewhere
Don't break my heart and set me free
Don't take the floor away from me
Don't break my heart and set me free
Don't take the floor away from me
Don't break my heart and set me free

Don't take my love for granted
I could believe in something else
I could be happy somewhere
I could be happy on a shelf
I could believe in something else
I could be happy on a shelf
I could believe in something else
I could be happy on a shelf

And in my hour of darkness, I shall be released
In my hour of darkness, I shall be released
In my hour of darkness, I shall be released
In my hour of darkness, I shall be released
Yeah

[guitar solo]

Don't take the floor away from me
Don't break my heart and set me free

Maybe I'm none the wiser
Don't give me time to change my mind
It's gotta be all or nothing
It isn't easy to be kind
Don't give me time to change my mind
It isn't easy to be kind
Don't give me time to change my mind
It isn't easy to be kind
Easy to be kind, easy to be kind, easy to be kind

I could believe in something
Don't take the floor away from me
I could be happy somewhere
Don't break my heart and set me free
Don't take the floor away from me
Don't break my heart and set me free
Don't take the floor away from me
Don't break my heart and set me free

Don't take my love for granted
I could believe in something else
I could be happy somewhere
I could be happy on a shelf
I could believe in something else
I could be happy on a shelf
I could believe in something else
I could be happy on a shelf

And in my hour of darkness, I shall be released
In my hour of darkness, I shall be released
In my hour of darkness, I shall be released
In my hour of darkness, I shall be released
Yeah

Maybe, I'm none the wiser
Don't give me time to change my mind
It's gotta be all or nothing
It isn't easy to be kind
Don't give me time to change my mind
It isn't easy to be kind
Don't give me time to change my mind
It isn't easy to be kind
Easy to be kind, easy to be kind, easy to be kind
