Little pebble upon the sand
Now you're lying here in my hand
How many years have you been here?
Little human upon the sand
From where I'm lying here in your hand
You to me are but a passing breeze
The sun will always shine where you stand
Depending in which land you may find yourself
Now, you have my blessing, go your way
La, la-la, la, la-la, la, la-la, la-la-la
La, la-la, la, la-la, la-la-la, la
Happiness runs in a circular motion
Thought is like a little boat upon the sea
All our souls are deeper than you can see
You can have everything if you let yourself be
Everybody is a part of anything, anyway
You can have everything if you let yourself be
Happiness runs, happiness runs
Happiness runs, happiness runs
Happiness runs, happiness runs
Happiness runs, happiness runs
Happiness runs, happiness runs
Happiness runs, happiness runs
Happiness runs in a circular motion
Thought is like a little boat upon the sea
All our souls are deeper than you can see
You can have everything if you let yourself be
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
La-la, la-la, la-la, la-la, let yourself be
Happiness runs, happiness runs
Happiness runs, happiness runs
Now you're lying here in my hand
How many years have you been here?
Little human upon the sand
From where I'm lying here in your hand
You to me are but a passing breeze
The sun will always shine where you stand
Depending in which land you may find yourself
Now, you have my blessing, go your way
La, la-la, la, la-la, la, la-la, la-la-la
La, la-la, la, la-la, la-la-la, la
Happiness runs in a circular motion
Thought is like a little boat upon the sea
All our souls are deeper than you can see
You can have everything if you let yourself be
Everybody is a part of anything, anyway
You can have everything if you let yourself be
Happiness runs, happiness runs
Happiness runs, happiness runs
Happiness runs, happiness runs
Happiness runs, happiness runs
Happiness runs, happiness runs
Happiness runs, happiness runs
Happiness runs in a circular motion
Thought is like a little boat upon the sea
All our souls are deeper than you can see
You can have everything if you let yourself be
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
La-la, la-la, la-la, la-la, let yourself be
Happiness runs, happiness runs
Happiness runs, happiness runs
