Lyrics

I want to be happy

I aspire to experience happiness.

But I won't be happy

Currently, I am not happy.

Till I make you happy too

My happiness is dependent on making you happy as well.


Life's really worth living

Life becomes meaningful when we bring joy to others.

When we are mirth giving

Happiness is derived from spreading laughter and joy.

Why can't I give some to you?

Questioning why the speaker is unable to bring joy to the person addressed.


When skies are gray

Expressing a challenging moment when the atmosphere is gloomy.

And you say you are blue

When you are feeling sad, I will bring positivity and happiness.

I'll send the sun smiling through

Commitment to dispel gloominess by bringing brightness and joy.


I want to be happy

Reiteration of the desire for personal happiness.

But I won't be happy

Despite the desire, current happiness is elusive.

Till I make you happy too

Linking personal happiness to the happiness of the addressed person.


I want to be happy

Repetition of the desire for happiness.

But I won't be happy

Emphasizing the current lack of happiness.

Till I make you happy too

Stressing the connection between personal happiness and the happiness of the addressed person.


Life's really worth living

Restating the importance of joy in life.

When we are mirth giving

Highlighting the role of sharing joy in making life worthwhile.

Why can't I give some to you?

Persisting confusion about the inability to bring joy to the addressed person.


When skies are gray

Describing a challenging situation when the sky is overcast.

And you say you are blue

Promising to bring sunshine to alleviate the addressed person's sadness.

I'll send the sun smiling through

Commitment to bring brightness and positivity even in difficult times.


I want to be happy

Reiteration of the personal desire for happiness.

But I won't be happy

Acknowledgment of the current lack of personal happiness.

Till I make you happy

Declaring the intention to achieve personal happiness by making the addressed person happy.

Then I'll be happy too

Anticipating that personal happiness will be achieved when the addressed person is happy.
