Anna Lam - Happy To Lyrics

Standing on her doorstep in the spring
She thought of all the things that she had seen
It made her breathe a little sigh
And look up at the burdened sky
And wish that they would all live happily

'Cos you can build your house
But build it carefully

What a silly thing to cry about she thinks
And she tells her heart to dream a better dream
And it's hard to play a better part
But you told me that I'd have to start
And that's the way it'll always have to be

'Cos you can build your house
But build it carefully

Clever, cruel
To fall for you
Lovely, true
I was happy to

A few months passed
She hardly saw 'em go
She takes her time
She takes her walks alone
She cooks and cleans and then she sings
A few days 'til she's 23
She'll make herself into what she wants to be

Build your house
But build it carefully

So it goes
Now I know
Lovely, true
I was happy to
