Happy Girl - Beth Nielsen Chapman

I used to live in a darkened room

Had a face of stone

And a heart of gloom

Lost my hope, I was so far gone

Crying all my tears

With the curtains drawn

I didn’t know until my soul broke free

I’ve got these angels watching over me

Oh watch me go

I’m a happy girl

Everybody knows

That the sweetest thing you’ll ever see

In the whole wide world

Is a happy girl

I used to hide in a party crowd

Bottled up inside

Feeling so left out

Standing in a corner wearing concrete shoes

With my frozen smile

And my lighted fuse

Now every time I start to feel like that

I roll my heart out like a welcome mat

Laugh when I feel like it

Cry when I feel like it

That’s just how my life is

That’s how it goes

Oh, yeah

Oh, yeah

I’m a happy girl
