Lyrics

The grass will be greener
The sky more blue
That's what the feeling does to you
When you’re happy (7x) in love

Whoa-oa-oa-oa-oa

Friends will notice you're acting more gay
All your troubles will be washed away
When your happy (7x) in love

You won't care if the sun don't shine
All your worries will be left behind
You'll be happy (4x) all the time
When you’re happy (3x) in love
Tra la la

You’ll have a smile upon your face
All your worries will be washed away
When you’re happy (7x) in love

Tra la la la la la, tra la la la la la la
Tra la la la la la la, tra la la la la la
Tra la la la la la la, tra la la la la la
Tra la la la la da da da

You won't care if the sun don't shine
All your worries will be left behind
You'll be happy (4x) all the time
When you’re happy (3x) in love
Tra la la

You’ll wear a smile upon your face
The world will seem like a better place
When you're happy (7x) in love

Tra la la la la la, tra la la la la la la
Tra la la la la la la, tra la la la la la
Tra la la la la la la, tra la la la la la
Tra la la la la da da da

When you’re happy (7x) in love (happy happy in love)
When you’re happy (7x) in love (happy happy in love)
