You've got to choose to be happy or you'll never feel that way and nothing in this world will cheer you up.
You know that life's a big mind game and you'd better come to play 'cause no one ever said it won't be tough.
Circumstance, luck, and chance, they all play a part, but happiness in more than throwing dice...

You've got to choose to be happy or you'll never feel that way. It's up to you to bring joy in your life.
You've got to choose to forget the things that didn't go your way 'cause nothing you can do can change the past.
You know that life isn't over just because you made mistakes. Tomorrow always brings a second chance.
If you wallow in your sorrow, you will waste away So lift your head and open up your eyes.
You've got to choose to be happy or you'll never feel that way. It's up to you to bring joy in your life.

Oh, you can go through life and seek out sympathy Or you can do the most to make your destiny.
It's not the work you do that makes your life complete. It's that attitude that you exude that makes you feel upbeat.

You've got to choose to be happy or you'll never feel that way. And, no, it isn't easy all the time.
I know that life's disappointments have a very special way of turning would be smiles into frowns.
Sympathy has its place, and empathy?s okay, and life will sometimes lead a downward slope.
But, you've got to choose to be happy or you'll never feel that way. Self pity is no substitute for hope.
