Happiness makes my face light up and smile
Even when the days are lousy
And the skies are really cloudy
All I wanna do is smile at you

Make the music bounce
And the atmosphere loud
Laughter is what fills the perfect soul
spirit wants to shout everything is alright

Happiness makes my face
Light up and smile
Suddenly I'm at the cliff
And I'm making a free-fall for the ground
The air around me is full of joy and I breath it in!
Suddenly you think I'm nuts
Because there's a smile plastered on my face

Well life is full of little moments
Can't help but contemplate
They should be taken with a smile
And a little ease of mind

I am blind
And I ain't blind
To the different social classes
And their faces
I try and try to be impartial
But my fears and preconceptions
Give way to prejudice of thought

Love and unity fill my mind
Yet when its time
To effect some change
My feet quiver
And words can't formulate

I want to tell my brethren
you are special to me
and I love you just the same
As anybody else
But I'm scared of what he will respond
Will he reject me as we are not the same
Will he embrace me and bring forth a seed of change

I am blind
And I ain't blind
To the disdain classes afford one another
Man threatens to discard the fact we're all the same

So I wonder
Can we look beyond facades
Strip it all down to our core

Don't we all want to feel the same
Maybe we can toughen up and take down the ranks
That impede us from becoming one-another's friend

My heart painless
My soul boundless

Life no longer waiting on me
Ready to run
Ready to fall in love endlessly

Joy awaits at every corner
And I am ready to find it

Laughter's tune in my mind
A perfect melody
Soothing sound to the soul
No other sound brings more joy

Peace crawls in around me
Wild vine it surrounds me

Fragrance of happiness
Its trace confines me

Soul begs to be released

Life is a passage full of thirst
and soul refuses to be an empty basin

Give it love, give it hope, give it life
And it will sore

Peace will reign
Peace will reign
Peace will reign

When clouds cover the sun
And cold is what you feel
Inside and out
Rays of light
Will sweep in
And make you warm

When hatred seems to be all around
And hearts deteriorate with pain
love will come restore them all

Peace will reign
Peace will reign
Peace will reign

When ignoring the signs
And he calls your name
You will find Him
In your own life, all along

When selfish beings
Leading short sad lives
will realize that living
for everyone but themselves
Will fill that void
And elongate their days

Peace will reign
Peace will reign
Peace will reign

You're pretty
You're pretty awesome
Girl you glow

You're pretty
You're pretty cool
Girl everyone wants you around

You're pretty
You're pretty smart
Girl you'll make it far

No,  no one compares
You're special to me
No one compares

Just call me whatever
But more importantly
Can I call you
Sweetheart, lover, the one

Can I look into those eyes
call them beautiful
Stare at them with warmth

Can I put my arms around you
Hold you and embrace you
Till again I am fully recharged

Can I stand next to you
Admire you because I look up to you
and just smile when our eyes meet

Just call me whatever
But more importantly
Can I call you
Sweetheart, lover, the one

Can I tell you a silly joke
So we can share a smile
crack up with tears of joy

Can I ask you a question
So I can hear your beautiful voice
And learn something too

Can I pretend to be in trouble
So you can come to my rescue

Just call me whatever
But more importantly
Can I call you
Sweet heart, lover, the one

Sometimes got to feel
A little hopeful
But end up disappointed

Got to feel a little happy
But instead end up sour

Done a lot to date
Accomplished and recognized
You'd think that be enough

Mask up troubles
Blur them out of mind
And just be proud

But if only one could settle
Without peace of mind
