[Intro]
Seems the things I've wanted in my life
I've never had
So it's no surprise that livin' here
Has only left me sad

[Chorus]
Happiness where are you?
I've searched so long for you
Happiness what are you?
I haven't got a clue
Happiness why do you have to stay
So far away
From me

[Verse 1]
When I'm in despair
And life has turned into a mess
I know that I don't dare
To end my search for happiness

[Chorus]
Happiness where are you?
I've searched so long for you
Happiness what are you?
I haven't got a clue
Happiness why do you have to stay
So far away
From me
[Verse 2]
Happiness sometimes I think I see you from afar
When I run to catch you, though
That's just not where you are

[Chorus]
Happiness where are you?
I've searched so long for you
Happiness what are you?
I haven't got a clue
Happiness why do you have to stay
So far away
From me

[Guitar solo]

[Chorus]
Happiness where are you?
I'm gonna get to you
Happiness what are you?
I'll know before I'm through
Happiness you know you just can't stay
So far away
From me
