Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I was so tired of being upset
Always wanting something I never could get
Life's an illusion, love is a dream
But I don't know what it is
[Verse 2]
Everybody's happy nowadays
Everybody's happy nowadays
[Verse 3]
I was so tired of being upset
Always wanting something I never could get
Life's an illusion, love is a dream
But I don't know what it is
[Verse 4]
'Cause everybody's happy nowadays
Everybody's happy nowadays
[Verse 5]
Life's an illusion, love is a dream
But I don't know what it is
Everyone's sayin' things to me
But I know it's okay, okay
[Verse 6]
Everybody's happy nowadays
Everybody's happy nowadays
[Verse 7]
Everybody's happy nowadays
Everybody's happy nowadays
[Verse 8]
Life's an illusion, love is a dream
Life's an illusion, love is the dream
Life's the illusion, love is a dream
Life's the illusion, love is the dream
[Verse 9]
Everybody's happy nowadays
Everybody's happy nowadays, todays
[Verse 10]
Well, I bet you're tired of being upset
Always wanting something I never could get
Life's no illusion, love's not a dream
Now I know just what it is
[Verse 11]
Everybody's happy nowadays
Everybody's happy nowadays
