[Verse 1] Sun come climbing over the bay Rooster crow start the day Salt wind dancing through the door Barefoot steps on the floor Neighbors laughing down the street Steel pan ringing soft and sweet Tried to chase what others show But peace was where the trade winds blow [Chorus] Happiness an inside job No man sell it in the shop No thief take it in the night Got to keep that little light Happiness an inside job When the day feel rough and hard Don’t need wait for lucky star Joy right where you are [Verse 2] Mama say “Son slow your pace Feel the sunshine on your face You keep searching far and wide But the door was right beside” So I count the simple things Ocean tide and children sing Laughing under mango tree Life more easy than it seem [Chorus] Happiness an inside job No man sell it in the shop No thief take it in the night Got to keep that little light Happiness an inside job When the day feel rough and hard Don’t need wait for lucky star Joy right where you are [Bridge] All this time I gave away How I feel from day to day Now I hold the little key Peace is living inside me [Final Chorus] Happiness an inside job No man sell it in the shop No thief take it in the night Got to keep that little light Happiness an inside job Don’t need wait for lucky star Sweet life start inside your heart Right where you are ——————— Written and produced by @vinnyleaf Vinnyleaf Music 2026
