To Be Happy Now

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 tracing 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, it'll 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
