Lyrics
I just want to be
Happy
Again
I just want to be
Happy
Again
For a moment
I felt it
Had a Brief Glimpse of it.
I knew what it was like.
For a moment
I felt it
Had a Brief Glimpse of it.
I knew what it was like.
Held it in the palm of my hand
Rolled it around
Looked it over
But it slipped through my fingers
It slipped away
Held it in the palm of my hand
Rolled it around
Looked it over
But it slipped away.
And now it?s gone
And now it's gone.
And now it?s gone.
And now it?s gone.
I just want to be
Happy.
I just want to be
Happy.
Is that so much toAsk?
Is that too much to Ask?
I want it Back.
I want it Again.
