Happy (Arends Carolyn)

Do I annoy you with my optimism? Am I an insult to your realism? I got hope and just a little bit of passion And I know both those things have gone right out of fashion So call me a rebel, you can call me a fool I won't give up the fight, I just refuse And I will dare to dream I will dare to believe in something, baby And I will dare to be happy And I will dare to be happy Does it offend you that I've made that decision? Does it betray your sense of fatalism? Please forgive me but I don't believe it's treason For me to live my life like it's mine for a reason So call me Pollyanna, you can call me a child But I will not lie down, that's not my style And I will dare to dream I will dare to believe in something, baby And I will dare to be happy And I will dare to be happy Do I annoy you with my stubborn insistence? That love can save us and I've seen its existence I got Jesus and a little bit of passion And I know both those things have gone right out of fashion So you can call me crazy 'cause here's what I'm gonna do, I'm gonna dare to pray the same for you And I will dare to dream I will dare to believe in something, baby And I will dare to be happy And I will dare to be happy I will dare to dream I will dare to believe in something, baby And I will dare to be happy And I will dare to be happy Yeah, I will dare to be happy
