How Can I Be Happy?

Lyrics by Steven R. Drennon, ©️ 1991 - 2024 Please check out my YouTube channel if you get a chance: https://www.youtube.com/@firstep3 [Instrumental Intro] [Verse 1] My friends all say That I haven’t smiled in so long. I guess maybe they’re right, Because I haven’t smiled since you’ve gone. I know they’re concerned About what I’m going through, But I feel so empty When I’m not with you. I guess for their sake I’ll try to be happy again. [Chorus] How can I be happy When I can’t be with you? Just sit and feel so lonely Is the best that I can do. I’m driving myself crazy Missing you each day. How can I be happy Since you’ve gone away? [Instrumental] [Verse 2] I hope in time That I can be happy again. I don’t know if I can Find the pleasure I felt back then. When I think of you Being so far away, I feel such a longing To be with you some way. I know with you here That I could be happy again. [Chorus] How can I be happy When I can’t be with you? Just sit and feel so lonely Is the best that I can do. I’m driving myself crazy Missing you each day. How can I be happy Since you’ve gone away? [Instrumental Interlude] [Chorus] How can I be happy When I can’t be with you? Just sit and feel so lonely Is the best that I can do. I’m driving myself crazy Missing you each day. How can I be happy Since you’ve gone away? [Instrumental Outro]
