Where is the happiness, where is it?
Where is it?
Where is the happiness, where is it?
Where is it?

I made love, I begged
I was waiting to be happy
I made songs, I made children
I did my best
I sulked, I pretended
We do what we can
I acted the fool, it's true, I partied, yeah
I thought I was happy, but

There are all these nights without friends
When no one calls and comes
It's Sunday night, in the water
Like a fool in his bath
Trying to drown it, but it floats
This damn sorrow
So, I sing to myself my most beautiful notes and
It will be better tomorrow

Where is the happiness, where is it?
Where is it?
Where is the happiness, where is it?
Where is it?

The happiness is here, it's here
It's here
The happiness is here, it's here
It's here

I courted, I made my circus
I was waiting to be happy
I played the clown, it's true and I did nothing
But it's not getting any better
I did good, I made mistakes
We do what we can
I made follies, I had fits of laughter, yeah
I thought I was happy, but

There are all these Christmas nights, where we smile politely
To protect from the cruel life
All these children's laughter
And these empty chairs that remind us
What life takes from us
So, I sing to myself my most beautiful notes
It was better before

Where is the happiness, where is it?
Where is it?
Where is the happiness, where is it?
Where is it?

The happiness is here, it's here
It's here
The happiness is here, it's here!
It's here

Happiness is a candle
Don't laugh too hard
You might blow it out
We want happiness, yes, we want it
Everyone wants to reach it
But happiness doesn't make noise, no, it doesn't make noise
No, it doesn't
Happiness is stupid, yeah, because it's often after that we know it was there

Where is the happiness, where is it?
Where is it?
Where is the happiness, where is it?
Where is it?

The happiness is here, it's here
It's here
The happiness is here, it's here, yeah
It's here

Oh, but, where is the happiness?
Where is the happiness?
Where is it?
Where is it?

Oh, but, where is the happiness?
But it's here
Happiness, it's here, it's here
And it's here
Happiness, it's here, it's here
