Lyrics

I want to be happy
But I won't be happy
'Til 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 grey
And you say you are blue
I'll send the sun smiling through

I want to be happy
But I won't be happy
'Til I make you happy, too

Writer(s): Irving Caesar, Otto Harbach, Vincent Youmans
