Are You Happy? Lyrics - Singles - Terence Trent Darby

I know that it's your own life 

I tell you this 

With an eye on your future 

Yes I know 

Mind my own business 

But I am here 

As an aid and a comfort 

I can see what you're going through 

'Cause we've all been there before 

But all in all 

Here's that I'm wondering 

I want to know 

Are you happy? 

Look me in the eye 

And answer my question 

I want to know 

Are you happy? 

Or are you afraid 

Of decisions that you need to make? 

I know that life's about choices 

But making a wrong one 

Will not stop the world 

When in doubt just live the questions 

And someday you will grow into the answer 

You're allowed as many mistakes 

As you need to learn and move on 

Well, well, well now ponder this 

'Cause my heart is ringing a bell 

I want to know 

Are you happy? 

I'm coming to you from Heartbeat Avenue 

I wanna know 

Are you happy, 

Or are you running 

From decisions that you need to make? 

I wanna know 

Are you happy? 

Can I be of service? 

What can I do to help you now? 

I know life's a bitch sometimes 

But you got to take it in 

Chew it up 

And spit it out again 

You got to accept the pain 

You can't get around it 

You can't get under it 

But you can get over it
