I'm gonna write a happy song So, when I'm down and all alone, I could sing it to myself Until I'm up again. Under cold winter moons I'll sing of sunny afternoons, Hum and whistle to myself Until I'm up again. But my heart plays, in minor, One sad note after another, And it repeats itself Until I'm down again. After a long somber night I'll find my way to the morning light; Softly whisper to myself Until I'm up again. No, I won't let the thought of you Sneak in to my mind and paint it blue. I'll have my song up on the shelf; I'll pick it up again. But my heart plays, in minor, One sad note after another, And it repeats it self Until I'm down again. La la la... I'm gonna write a happy song So, when I'm down and all alone, I could sing it to myself Until I'm up again.
