In the moments before time starts moving backward
I will feel her hand in the palm of mine
And the cities will return to the field of flowers
And every step we took takes me back in line
And in disarray, you just want to live one more day

Cause you just want to be happy now
To be happy now
To be happy now

Longing and sorrow
Well we will find you where we are
Smiling down the avenue
And the children, getting younger as we pass
They couldn't make you turn back

Cause you just want to be happy now
To be happy now
To be happy now

When every fire we sparked was just another blinking out, they're glowing like an ember in the dark

Cause you just want to be happy now
To be happy now
To be happy now
To be happy now
