Why Can't We Be Happy Lyrics - Album - Joan Jett

I didn't mean to lose control and take it out on you 

But there are things 

I can't explain 

Like havin' dreams come true 

While all the world 

Is sad and cold 

Look at me and you 

We have so much 

Why don't I feel happy, baby? 

I love you so much 

Why can't we be happy? 

Every time we have a fight 

It hurts me through and through 

And all at once I'm so unsure 

What I'm supposed to do 

Even so I always know I'll spend my life with you 

We have so much 

Why don't I feel happy, baby? 

I love you so much 

Why can't we be happy? 

No one can satisfy 

The needs in me but you 

I try to speak my mind to you 

But you don't hear me 

I gotta get off by myself 

An' have a drink or two 

'cause lately I been so uptight from 

What we're goin' through 

To live without you 

Would hurt no doubt 

I never wanted to 

We have so much 

Why don't I feel happy, baby? 

I love you so much 

Why can't we be happy?
