I know that my surroundings aren't the very best
|
But my soul's on fire and won't let me rest
|
I'm doing things I really shouldn't do I guess I'm just pursuing happiness
|
I'm living much too fast a pace with two to care
|
I'm just looking for a dream that I can share
|
I'm sinking fast but no one hears my SOS I'm just pursuing happiness
|
|
Almost everyone I know has someone to worry
|
Someone to cheer them when they're low
|
So if I walk by you in too big a hurry it's because I got no place to go
|
Wherever people gather that's where I'll be found
|
In hope that someone's hand will reach and slow me down
|
Behind me I can feel that demon loneliness I'm just pursuing happiness
|

|
Almost everyone I know...
|
I'm just persuing happiness I'm just pursuing happiness
