Always a mellow child

I like the deep in things

Like the end of a book

Never an optimist

I saw the end of things

When you saw the start

And every time there's a storm out

I seem to walk right in

And every time I hear sirens

I'm afraid that is my sin

I choose to be happy

I choose to be happy

Behind the skies, there may be nothing but rain

But I learned to swim so I'll jump in again

I choose to be happy

Always awake at night

I have a worried heart

I dream in blue

Always been on the run

Can't help but look for trouble

Don't have any breaks

And every time there's a storm out

I seem to walk right in

And every time I hear sirens

I'm afraid that is my sin

I choose to be happy

I choose to be happy

Behind the skies, there may be nothing but rain

But I learned to swim so I'll jump in again

And every time there's a storm out

I seem to walk right in

(I choose to be happy)

And every time I hear sirens

I'm afraid that is my sin

I choose to be happy

I choose to be happy

Behind the skies, there may be nothing but rain

But I learned to swim so I'll jump in again

(Happy)

Behind the skies, there may be nothing but rain

But I learned to swim so I'll jump in again

I'll choose to be happy
