Sara Bareilles — Happy Enough

I am my father's first and only son And my family worked until the job was done We didn't have much but we still had some And I learned to be happy enough I'm proud of everything I've earned and own I built a business and I built a home Someday you'll read it on my slate headstone That I was happy enough Keep your head down And enjoy what's around you Make solid ground on happy enough The way that I see it I have what I need As long as I breathe, I'm happy enough I get by on happy enough I get by on happy enough (I get by) (Happy enough) I know you mean it and I envy that I wish I felt that way too But you've got a house, your health, a job, a husband Girl, what else do you want? We can't have it all (Ooh, happy enough) Might as well take what's coming your way Face it and say "I'm happy enough" Keep your head down Enjoy what's around you Make solid ground on happy enough
