lyrics

LOW

I’m doing everything that makes me happy
Doing everything that makes me happy
If I’m doing everything that makes me happy
Why am I so low?

Look at all the people splashing in the river.
Look at all the people splashing in the river.
All the happy people laughing in the river.
Why am I so low? Why am I so low?

Sun shining brightly lighting up the skyway
Sun shining brightly but I feel like I could cry.

Strumming my guitar, I’m singing to the melody
Strumming my guitar, singing to the melody
Strumming my guitar to such a pretty melody
So why am I so low?

Sun shining brightly lighting up the skyway
Sun shining brightly but I feel like I could cry.

It takes rain to make a rainbow, you know
It takes rain to make a rainbow, you know
It takes re to make so-la-ti-do
So why am I so low?

Doing everything that makes me happy
Doing everything that makes me happy
If I’m doing everything that makes me happy
Why am I so low?
