"Happy Song (Tonite)"
(Karen Anderson / Mark Middleton / Teddy Riley / Tommy Sims)

[Chorus:]
Tonight
Gotta take these records off the shelf
Play something special for yourself
It's over now
Gotta leave your troubles far behind
Or just enough to ease your mind
'Cuz only time can decide
Baby, you'll be alright this time

Oh, oh, oh, oh I, oh I
This time
Oh, oh, oh, oh I, oh I

Say my name when you feel the pain
I'll be there to shelter when it's pouring rain
If I can do anything
Girl you know
I'll try

Times are rough
You feel you're going nowhere
Your sadness hurts so bad
And there's no one to care
The sun shine's after the rain
Girl I know
'Cuz I been there before
In this world all alone
And you been there for me
And you gave me your all
I've there before
You'll come around
And you'll be alright
'Cuz this is your time, so

[Chorus]

Oh, oh, oh, oh I, oh I
This time
Oh, oh, oh, oh I, oh I

Just when you think love's about to end
That's when you find a new beginning
It's a part of life

You wonder why you go all through a change
Why it seemed like things never go your way
Girl, I know how it feels to be alone
'Cuz I been there before
At the bottom alone
I know the way to reach the top
You got to let go
I've been insecure
You'll come around
And you'll be alright
'Cuz this is your time, so

[Chorus]

Oh, oh, yeah, yeah
Whoa

[Chorus 2:]
Tonight
Gotta take these records off the shelf
Play something special for yourself
It's over now
Gotta leave your troubles far behind
On just enough to ease your mind

[Chorus 2]

Oh, tonight
Gotta take these records off the shelf
Play something special for yourself
Oh, tonight
Troubles are far behind
Let me ease your mind
Whoa

[Chorus 2]
