Happy
Unveiling Love's Mystery: A Journey to Happiness with Jenny Lewis
Lyrics
I'd rather be lonely, I'd rather be free
Prefer being alone and having freedom
I'm as sure as the moon rolls around the sea
Expressing certainty like the cyclical nature of the moon and sea
But I like watching you undress
Enjoys observing the act of someone undressing
And I think we're at our best
Believes the relationship is strongest during simple, intimate moments
By the flicker by the light of the TV set
Being in a cozy setting, illuminated by the TV
'Cause I can't remember why I hated you
Forgotten reasons for past hatred towards someone
Can't remember why I still do
Despite forgetting, still harbors some animosity
But I'm as sure as the moon rolls around you
Confident in feelings akin to the consistent moon cycles
That I could be happy, happy
Expresses the potential for happiness
Oh, so happy, happy
Emphasizing extreme happiness
Oh, so happy, so happy
Reiterating profound happiness
They warn you about killers and thieves in night
Mentions common warnings about dangers but worries about different concerns
I worry about cancer and living right
Anxiety about health and moral living
But my mama never warned me about my own
Lack of warning about personal destructive tendencies
Destructive appetite
Recognizes a self-destructive tendency
Or the pitfalls of control
Warning about the dangers of control and its suffocating effects
How it locks you in your grave
Control leads to a metaphorical imprisonment
Looking for someone to be saved and not restrained
Desire for freedom from restrictions to find salvation
So I could be happy, happy
Reiterates the potential for happiness despite constraints
Oh so happy, happy
Emphasizes extreme happiness despite challenges
Oh so happy, happy
Continued emphasis on profound happiness
So happy, so happy
Further emphasizes overwhelming happiness
I'm as sure as the moon rolls around
Reiteration of certainty akin to the consistent motion of the moon
