Lyrics Tony Bennett

Tony Bennett

I Want to Be Happy

I want to be happy

But I won't be happy

Till I make you happy, too

Life's really worth living

When we are mirth-giving

Why can't I give some to you?

When skies are gray

And you say you are blue

I'll send the sun smiling through

I want to be happy

But I won't be happy

Till I make you happy, too

I'm a very ordinary man

Trying to work out life's happy plan

Doing unto others as I'd like to have them

Doing unto me

Now when I find a very lonely soul

To be kind becomes my only goal

I feel so much better when I tell ‘em my philosophy

I want to be happy

But I won't be happy

Till I make you happy, too

Life's really worth living

When we are mirth-giving

Why can't I give some to you?

When skies are gray

And you say you are blue

I'll send the sun smiling through

I want to be happy

But I won't be happy

Till I make you happy, too

happy, too

happy, too
