Who Needs Happiness (I'd Rather Have You) - The Mr. T Experience

Sitting around here with nothing to do

It’s wearing me down dear, just thinking of you

How it’s been so long since I held you close

How things could go wrong when I need you most

My devotion is an ocean of uneasiness

Distraction, worry, grief and stress

For love is sadness

Love is madness

Love is thinking if I make it through this hell on earth

It might be worth it

Who needs happiness?

I’d rather have you

Roaming these hallways with dreams unfulfilled

Why do they always seem so uphill?

A happy existence of peace and goodwill

Me on assistance and you on the pill: is that so wrong?

But no one sees it my way

«Get a life,» is what they say

Well, I’m all spent, all sentimentally retarded now

You know it’s true

I may have shot what life I’ve got, but I don’t want a life

I just want you

I just want you to be with me here

And I don’t care much if it’s not such a good idea

If falling short of happy is the best that we can do

Who needs happiness?

I’d rather have you

Who needs happiness if I can’t have you, too?

If it’s true that I have to choose between the two

Who needs happiness?

I’d rather have you
