Happy Taxi Lyrics - Tikaram Tanita

Criss-cross laces 

You have the centre 

You have the cinnamon 

In the centre 

You shouldn't be alone 

You shouldn't just pick up yourself 

And shine yourself 

And make yourself fit a brand new maybe 

In the side streets 

You been walking 

I have been walking too 

So, you know the faces 

You know how they'll flirt with you 

Well, I know my favourite language 

Well, it trickles down my mouth 

If this is me 

Being close to you 

Being somewhere like the last night we spend together 

That is something next to nothing 

That is something 

So, I got my truth of many colours 

I got my fears 

Another shade 

But when I'm riding my happy taxi 

I guess I got it made 

Who's that creeping? 

In the street there 

Who's that creeping? 

By your window 

She might know something 

She might show you some things 

You never really want to share forever 

Mean forever 

'Cos it feels so slow 

We drove out like something special 

In our special rags 

Well, I know that something special happens! 

When we drive our sad to happy 

We go driving 

In our happy taxi 

In our happy taxi 

I am not the 

First street preacher 

Not the first to 

Want to lead you 

Not the first to 

Leave your money 

Not the first to 

Leave your home 

Not the first to 

Leave forever 

Glad to go 

When love has gone 

So where am I going? 

Where am I going tonight? 

So where am I staying? 

In my happy moonlight 

In my happy taxi 

In my happy taxi 

In my happy taxi 

In my happy taxi 

In my happy taxi 

In my happy taxi 

Would you drive me down? 

Would you drive me down? 

Would you drive me down? 

In my happy taxi 

In my happy taxi
