Happy the Man Songtext
von John Paul Young

On the street, yet another night
Memories in the pale moonlight
World asleep, not a soul around
The whistle blows, the last train′s leavin' town
To somewhere I belong
How could I be so wrong? Oh, emptiness

Happy the man (happy the man)
Who′ll be holdin' you tonight
Happy the man (happy the man)
Who will lay down by your side
Happy the man (happy the man)
You will thrill with your smile
I'm gonna pay and he′s gonna lay
In your tenderness
In your gentleness


What we had was a precious thing
Lost in tears and imaginings
And I wish that I could make up for all the hurt I put you through
All I know is, the road leads back to you
To somewhere I belong
How could I be so wrong? Oh, emptiness

Happy the man (happy the man)
Who′ll be holdin' you tonight
Happy the man (happy the man)
Who will lay down by your side
Happy the man (happy the man)
You will thrill with your smile
I′m gonna pay and he's gonna lay
In your tenderness
In your gentleness

Happy the man (happy the man)
Who′ll be holdin' you tonight
Happy the man (happy the man)
Who will lay down by your side
Happy the man (happy the man)
You will thrill with your smile
I′m gonna pay and he's gonna lay
In your tenderness
In your gentleness


Happy the man (happy the man)
Who'll be holdin′ you tonight
Happy the man (happy the man)
Who will lay down by your side
Happy the man (happy the man)
You will thrill...
