Lyrics: Steve Perry. Street Talk. You Should Be Happy.


Voices in the dead of night
Whisper words of loneliness it's true
Footsteps echo down the hall
Coming ever closer, is it you
It's not fair for mortal man
To put up with this pain
I'm goin' through

You should be happy
Now you're on your own
You should be happy
Now you're on your own

If I could walk through that door
Leave behind these broken memories
Trapped inside this empty room
Desperation's closing in on me
If I had your heart of stone
I could break these chains
And I'd be free

You should be happy
Now you're on your own
You should be happy
Now you're on your own

Ooh, I could be happy
I could be happy someday

If you would have tried
If you hadn't lied
We'd never be alone again

Happy, now you're on your own
Happy, yes, you're on your own
You should be happy
Now you're on your own
Happy, oh yes, you're on your own
But, now I'm happy
Now I'm on my own
Happy
