Happiness + Love Lyrics

I'm not made out of stone
And neither are you
Or that girl or that guy either, ooh
What is this block that keeps me apart from him or her?
I know that it's something in me

Happiness and love
Happiness and love
Happiness and love

If I loved you
I couldn't keep a secret
I'd want the world to hear it
If I loved you (oooh ooooh oooooh)

These days I feel like I'm all by myself
So sad and alone
Just replaying old memories
And the face I see I'm separated from by an awkward conversation
But maybe after the initial shock
Comes happiness and love
Happiness and love
Happiness and love

I want those too
You've got enough to spare it
You only have to share it
I want those too (oooh oooh ooh ooooh)

about everything I say or feels goes unheard
At times I feel like a prisoner forced to live a confused life
Looking for happiness and love
Happiness and love
Happiness and love

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

I have no idea whether the lines

"will find the cue" "just reapering old man leaves" and "You only have to shit it"

are correct. If you listen to the song, they sound accurate. But "shit" in a song about happiness and love? It doesn't fit. I'll appreciate any comments.
