Lyrics

Happy Faces

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.

Run boy, run

Run boy, run

Run boy, run

Run boy ,run

Here she comes

Here she comes

She's coming for you

So, run boy, run

Run boy, run

Here she comes

Here she comes

She's coming for you

Cause these are tears of joy not woe

Cause woe betide, I open wide and let inside the flow

These are cries of happy rejoice

They are heartfelt and coarse

Can you not tell from the pain?

So, run boy, run boy, run boy, run

She's coming for you

Happy faces alone

Happy faces alone

Happy faces alone

Happy faces alone

So, run boy, run boy, run boy, run

She's coming for you

Happy faces alone

Happy faces alone

Happy faces alone

Happy faces alone

In these, the times of unhealthy regret,

it's the last cigarette and all the lonely days ahead

In these, the times of 'you wish you would'

When all the bridges have been burned

Then she slowly turns

So, run boy, run boy, run boy, run

She's coming for you

Happy faces alone

Happy faces alone

Happy faces alone

Happy faces alone

So, run boy, run boy, run boy, run

She's coming for you

Happy faces alone

Happy faces alone

Happy faces alone

Happy faces alone

Happy faces alone

Happy faces alone

Happy faces alone

Happy faces alone

Happy faces alone

Happy faces alone

Happy faces alone

Happy face

So, run boy, run boy, run boy, run boy,

run boy, run boy, run boy, run

So, run boy, run boy, run boy, run boy,

run boy, run boy, run boy, run
