Asa - Why Can't We lyrics

Woke up early this morning
With a smile on my face
Thought you were next to me
But then I see you walking away

Something ain't right this morning
Is it a sign he's leaving me?
So I call on a friend
Who might know better than me she says:

You worry much about things
You don't understand but don't give up
If it doesn't go with the plan
Why not have some fun?
While you're still young and still okay
'Cause life is short
Do what you can today, today!

Why can't we be happy? Ooo ooo ooo ooo!

What is life about? Did nobody tell you?
The reason why I ask
I can see you're so confused, oh!

You worry much about the
Things you cannot see
You have it all, with your money
Yet you still complain
Why not live this life?
While you're still young and still okay
'Cause life is short
Do what you can today, today!

Why can't we be happy? Ooo ooo ooo ooo!

Bayu ba bayu bay ai yah, Ai yah
Bayu ba bayu bay, bay aaa ah

Tell me why can't we be lovin'?
Ooo ooo ooo ooo! Why can't we be smiling?
Ooo ooo ooo ooo! Why can't we be leavin'?
(Yea, yea) ooo ooo ooo ooo!
Tell me why can't we be smiling?
Yea, yea, yea and why can't we be happy?
(Why can't we?) yea, yea
Oh why can't we be lovin'?
(Why can't we be smiling?) yea-aaa ahh

Why, why, why? Why? Why can't we be lovin'?
Yea, yea-yea, yea aa ah
