Jeffrey Gaines Happy That lyrics

A woman caught me smiling
I was walking down the street
The morning sun was shining brightly

She wondered what had happened to me
Tell me what's the score
I told her I was high on life politely

I'm happy that I woke up this morning
No one is promised another day
Lying in the grass, staring at the sky
Watching the clouds blow by me

A lazy afternoon, loved one by my side
Nothing satisfies more completely
I'm happy that I woke up this morning
'Cause not everyone gets a chance to stay

Life's too short, don't waste it
While we've a chance take it
Live life today and look toward tomorrow

This might be your last day for all that you know

Standing by the river's edge
Lost within the view
Romantic waves flowing through me
The water's like a looking glass
Reflections from the sky
Nature's the purest beauty

I'm happy that I woke up this morning
No one is promised another day
Happy that I've witnessed the dawning
Happy that I look at living this way

Life's too short, don't waste it
While we've a chance take it
Live life today look toward tomorrow
This might be your last day for all that you know
