Make Someone Happy
Unlocking Life's Joy: Make Someone Happy with Robert Goulet
Lyrics
The sound of applause is delicious
The experience of receiving applause is pleasurable.
It's a thrill to have the world at your feet
Feeling the world admiring you is exhilarating.
The praise of the crowd, it's exciting
Praises from the crowd are thrilling.
But I've learned that's not what makes a life complete
Realizing that life's completeness is not solely defined by external recognition.
There's one thing you can do for the rest of your days
A valuable thing to do throughout life.
That's worth more than applause
More valuable than applause are meaningful actions that benefit others.
The screaming crowd, the bouquets
The noise of the crowd and the gifts of flowers.
Make someone happy
The key to happiness is making someone else happy.
Make just one someone happy
Focusing on making at least one person happy.
Make just one heart the heart you sing to
Directing affection and attention to one particular heart.
One smile that cheers you
Finding joy in a single smile that uplifts you.
One face that lights when it nears you
Seeing a face light up with happiness when it's close to you.
One man you're everything to
Being everything to one special person.
Fame if you win it
Fame is transient and fleeting.
Comes and goes in a minute
The ephemeral nature of achieving and losing fame quickly.
Where's the real stuff in life to cling to
Questioning the substantial aspects of life to hold onto.
Love is the answer
Love is the ultimate solution.
Someone to love is the answer
Identifying someone to love as the answer to fulfillment.
Once you've found him, build your world around him
Once found, centering your world around the person you love.
Make someone happy
Reiterating the importance of making someone happy.
Make just one someone happy
Emphasizing the impact of making even one person happy on your own happiness.
And you will be happy, too
The reciprocal relationship between making someone happy and experiencing happiness.
