If That's What Makes You Happy
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Wakin' with the flowers to a morning in the meadow
Settlin' down to evening with the hills
I'm kickin stones and walkin all alone like a modern buried treasure
And it's all around and waiting there for free
If that's what makes you happy
then I'd love to sing my song
and if it strikes your ear
won't you sing along
Comin' on the flow in the field that no ones ever run through
Sippin' from a stream beneath the stars
And breaking bread there rollin up your bed
then hiding from the thunder
and though the sky may cry you know it's just another song
If that's what makes you happy
then I'd love to sing my song
and if it strikes your ear
won't you sing along
If that's what makes you happy
then I'd love to sing my song
and if it strikes your ear
won't you sing along
Whistling out a silly tune to a swallow in the sparrow
Draggin out some funny little sound
and then youre on your own and you're far from home
you find a smile on every corner
so if your'e feelin down just turn around and sing
Well, if that's what makes you happy
then I'd love to sing my song
and if it strikes your ear
won't you sing along
If that's what makes you happy
then I'd love to sing my song
and if it strikes your ear
won't you sing along
