Lyrics: Joan Jett And The Blackhearts. Why Can't We Be Happy.

I didn't mean to lose control and take it out on you
But there are things I can't explain like havin' dreams come true
While all the world is sad and cold, look at me and you

We have so much
Why don't I feel happy, baby?
I love you so much
Why can't we be happy?

Every time we have a fight, it hurts me through and through
And all at once I'm so unsure what I'm supposed to do
Even so I always know, I'll spend my life with you

We have so much
Why don't I feel happy, baby?
I love you so much
Why can't we be happy?

No one can satisfy the needs in me but you
I try to speak my mind to you
But you don't hear me

I gotta get off by myself an' have a drink or two
'Cuz lately I been so uptight from what we're goin' through
To live without you would hurt no doubt, I never wanted to

We have so much
Why don't I feel happy, baby?
I love you so much
Why can't we be happy?
