Happiness comes, happiness goes
Where it goes, no one knows!
What's in store, who can guess?
It could be . . . happiness!

If you're in love, an' she loves you too
Oh never break her heart, whatever you may do
Don't say goodbye ( Don't say goodbye! )
To a love that's true ( to a love that's true! )
Because if you should lose your one an' only
All your life you may be lonely!

Happiness comes ( Happiness comes! )
Happiness goes ( happiness goes! )
Where it goes ( where it goes! )
No one knows! ( no one knows! )
What's in store ( What's in store? )

Who can guess? ( who can guess? )
It could be . . . happiness!

Instrumental break

Happiness comes, happiness goes
Where it goes, no one knows!
What's in store ( What's in store? )
Who can guess? ( who can guess? )
It could be . . . happiness!
It could be . . . happiness!
It could be . . . happiness!
