Can We Try To Be happy
We went through unhappy days
and were tested in harsh ways:
we hardly knew true happiness;
can we try to be happy and rebuild
what fell apart the best we could?
Let's hold hands again and renew wows,
wipe off my teras and I'll wipe off yours;
we wouldn't live without any hope for tomorrow,
no light shone in our darkness, only a faint glow!
Can we try to be happy and laugh for a change?
Can we try to look at each other and be forgiving?
Who can chase rainy days away along with rage?
No lovers ever know joy if they stop believing!
Does it matter if we loved someone else?
Will it stop us from being one body, one soul?
What makes us sad must be forgotten at once;
we must be strong and most of all faithful!
Can we try to be happy for our sake?
We have seen many people with a torn heart
and how they cried at night and stayed awake;
we won't do what they did and fall apart!
