Happy Man Today
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.
Turn away
Walk on by
When I'm gone you still wouldn't cry
Never seem to care.
When you speak to me
You're so cold and far away
Oh, I'd give anything
Just to see you smile.
'Cause there's a light I saw you shine
A special time
Hiding a different kind.
There's nothing I can say
To make you a happy man (happy man)
Today.
Far away
Love is a challenge
But it hurts too much to care
But I'm finally estranged.
So turn away
Walk on by
Still I'd give anything
Just to see you smile.
'Cause there's a light I saw you shine
A special time
Hiding a different kind (ooh different kind).
There's nothing I can say
To make you a happy man (happy man)
Today.
'Cause here's a light I saw you shine
A special time
Hiding a different kind (ooh different kind).
There's a light I saw you shine
A special time
Hiding a different kind (ooh different kind).
There's nothing I can say
To make you a happy man today (happy man)
Today.
