"Makes Me Happy" lyrics - JON ANDERSON

Who was it said that
You could never get too happy
Who pulls the strings
That they don't know

Who was it said
That days would come
When you were lonely
They don't know
They don't know
They don't know
They don't know
They don't know

Just ask the question
Was it love and not for money
The fact it gets there just the same
I'm only guessing
That the people were not ready
For the love, for the love
For the love, for the love
Of the game

Just to be who you are
Makes me happy
Just to be where you are
Makes me feel so good inside
Just to be who you are
Makes me happy
Makes me happy
Just wait and see

Never think about the days
You didn't get the message
I guess the more you see the news
Just try to get there
When the good news gets you ready
It can help, it can help, it can help
Just singing the blues
It can help, it can help, it can help
Just singing the blues

Just to be who you are
Makes me happy
Just to be where you are
Makes it all worthwhile
Just to make love to you
Feels so good inside
Feels so good inside
Make me feel so good
So good, so good

Who was it said
That this is not a rehearsal
Let it be so true
It is the first day of the rest of your life
I wish we said "Let's make love not war"
You see anything's possible
'Cause they don't know
Well, they don't know

Whoever dreamed
That peace would come to every city
Whoever dreamed
That we could see so clear
Whoever counted
On the blessings of the children
To be there to be loved
To be there to be loved
To be there to be loved
To be there to be loved
To be there to be loved
To be there to be loved evermore
