Pursuit Of Happiness Lyrics

Gimme happiness over temptation any day
Lord, give me happiness
Satisfaction just gets in the way
Am I happiness?
It's so easy to stray
In the pursuit of happiness
But I keep searching come what may
For my happiness

They don't love you like you think they do
Nobody loves you the way you want them to
They say they love you but how can that be true?
How can they love you if you don't love you too?

Give me peacefulness over war anyday
Oh, gimme gracious nights if things don't go my way
No more deceitfulness
I've had more than I can take
Oh, so much hatefulness
When will this world give me a break?
From the hatefulness

They don't love you like you think they do
Nobody loves you the way you want them to
They say they love you but how can that be true?
How can they love you if you don't love you too?

Gimme loneliness over something that ain't worth the pain
Don't give me hopelessness, that ain't something I think I could take
I want happiness but there's a price to pay
For my happiness sacrifices must be made
For my happiness

They don't love you like you think they do
Nobody loves you the way you want them to
They say they love you but how can that be true?
How can they love you if you don't love you too?
