Happiness / In Buddy's Eyes

I'm so happy I’m afraid I'll die

Here in your arms

What would you do if I died like this, right now

Here in your arms?

That we ever should have met is a miracle

No, inevitable—

Inevitable, yes, but I confess

It was the look, that look

The sadness in your eyes

That day when we glanced at each other in the park

We saw that we were both unhappy

I pitied you, you pitied me

How quickly pity leads to love

All this happiness

Merely from a glance in the park

So much happiness

So much love

I thought I knew what love was

I wish we might have met so much sooner

I thought I knew what love was

I thought I knew how much I could feel

I didn't know what love was

But now I do

It’s what I feel with you

The happiness I feel with you[Verse 2]

Some say happiness

Comes and goes

Then this happiness is a kind of happiness

No one really knows

I didn't know what love was

I thought it was no more than a name for yearning

I thought it was what kindness became, I'm learning

I thought where there was love there was shame

But with you

There's just happiness

Endless happiness

Endless happiness

Endless happiness

Life is slow but it seems exciting

'Cause Buddy's there

Gourmet cooking and letter-writing

And knowing Buddy's there

Every morning—don't faint—

I tend the flowers

Can you believe it?

Every weekend I paint

For umpteen hours

And yes, I miss a lot living like a shut-in

No, I haven’t got cooks and cars and diamonds

Yes, my clothes are not Paris fashions[Chorus]

But in Buddy’s eyes

I'm young, I’m beautiful

In Buddy's eyes

I don't get older

So life is ducky

And time goes flying

And I'm so lucky

I feel like crying

And—

In Buddy’s eyes

I'm young, I'm beautiful

In Buddy's eyes

I can't get older

I'm still the princess

Still the prize

In Buddy's eyes

I'm young, I'm beautiful

In Buddy's arms

On Buddy's shoulder

I won't get older

Nothing dies[Post-Chorus]

And all I ever dreamed I'd be

The best I ever thought of me

Is every minute there to see

In Buddy's eyes

In Buddy's eyes

I'm still the princess

Still the prize

In Buddy's eyes

I'm young, I'm beautiful

In Buddy's eyes
