Happy for a Day

The sun is shining down, I feel the light Fleeing from the daily 9 to 5 In the park until it's dark We've somehow lost our way But why don't we pretend to be Happy for a day Happy for a day The air is cooling down, another fall Our stories running out, we've heard them all Scarlet wine at half past 9 Drink our thoughts away But why don't we pretend to be Happy for a day Happy for a day The rain is pouring down my windowsill I'm drunk and I'm alone, I feel you still Come to me so gently You don't have to stay But why don't we pretend to be Happy for a day Happy for a day But why don't we pretend to be Happy for today
