I hope you're feeling happy now I see you feel no pain at all, it seems I wonder what you're doin' now I wonder if you think of me at all Do you still play the same moves now? Or are those special moods for someone else? I hope you're feeling happy now Just because you feel good Doesn't make you right, oh no Just because you feel good Still want you here tonight Does laughter still discover you? I see through all the smiles that look so right Do you still have the same friends now To smoke away your problems and your life? Oh how do you remember me? The one that made you laugh until you cried I hope you're feeling happy now Just because you feel good Doesn't make you right, oh no Just because you feel good Still want you here tonight, want you Oh, no Just because you feel good Doesn't make you right, oh no Just because you feel good Still want you here tonight, want you Just because you feel good Doesn't make you right, oh no Just because you feel good Still want you here tonight, want you I wonder what you're doing now I hope you're feeling happy now I wonder what you're doing now I hope you're feeling happy now
