Sadness had been
Close as my inayofuata of kin
Then happy came one siku
Chased my blues away
My life began when happy smiled
Sweet like Candy to a child
Stay here and upendo me just a while
Let sadness see what happy does
Let happy be where sadness was
Happy, that's wewe
wewe made my life brand new
Lost as a little kondoo, mwana-kondoo was I
Till wewe came in
My life began when happy smiled
Sweet like Candy to a child
Stay here and upendo me just a while
Let sadness see what happy does
Let happy be there where sadness was
(Till now)
Where have I been
What lifetime was I in
Suspended between time and space
Lonely until happy came smiling up at me
Sadness had no choice but to flee
I alisema a prayer so silently
Let sadness see what happy does
Let happy be where sadness was
Till now
Happy
Yeah, yeah, happy
Close as my inayofuata of kin
Then happy came one siku
Chased my blues away
My life began when happy smiled
Sweet like Candy to a child
Stay here and upendo me just a while
Let sadness see what happy does
Let happy be where sadness was
Happy, that's wewe
wewe made my life brand new
Lost as a little kondoo, mwana-kondoo was I
Till wewe came in
My life began when happy smiled
Sweet like Candy to a child
Stay here and upendo me just a while
Let sadness see what happy does
Let happy be there where sadness was
(Till now)
Where have I been
What lifetime was I in
Suspended between time and space
Lonely until happy came smiling up at me
Sadness had no choice but to flee
I alisema a prayer so silently
Let sadness see what happy does
Let happy be where sadness was
Till now
Happy
Yeah, yeah, happy
