Carolyn Arends - Happy Lyrics
Do I annoy you with my optimismAm I an insult to your realismI've got hope and just a little bit of passionI know both those things have gone right out of fashionSo call me a rebel, you can call me a foolI won't give up the fight, I just refuseAnd I will dare to dreamI will dare to believe in something, babyI will dare to be -- happyI will dare to be happyDoes it offend you that I've made that decisionDoes it betray your sense of fatalismWell, please forgive me, but I don't believe it's treasonFor me to live my life like it's mine for a reasonSo call me Pollyanna, you can call me a childBut I will not lie down, that's not my styleAnd I will dare to dreamI will dare to believe in something, babyI will dare to be -- happyI will dare to be happyDo I annoy you with my stubborn insistenceThat love can save us and I've seen its existenceI've got Jesus and a little bit of passionI know both those things have gone right out of fashionSo you can call me crazy 'cause here's what I'm gonna doI'm gonna dare to pray the same for youAnd I will dare to dreamI will dare to believe in something, babyI will dare to be -- happyI will dare to be happy
