| I Used to Know I remember it pulling my lips upward in a smile I remember It made my life shine for a while Once I told someone that Even through the clouds I saw the sun Oh and how I longed to run outside and spread my arms out wide and spin Watching God's beauty swirl all around Faster and faster until I fell to the ground Laughing at the sheer joy of it Yeah, I used to know what it felt like to be happy And I used to smile for smiling sake And laugh for laughing sake And look down--for I was on top of the world On top of life and all it had to give Thankful every second I had this chance to live I believed my dreams were coming true I'd spent enough time being blue And I believed it was my turn to fly Yearh, I used to know what it felt like to be happy |
