Now once it was told to me
Someone once told me a secret

We're born with a magic key
We are all born with something special

It opens the door to miracles of spring
It unlocks wonderful things like new beginnings

It takes you to wishing wells
It leads you to places where dreams come true

To ice cream and carousels
To fun things like ice cream and carousels

And yet this magic key won't unlock a thing
But without happiness, it's useless

Unless you have a happy, ya have a happy
You need to be happy

Have a happy, warm smiling face
And show it with a warm, smiling face

I start believin', in believin'
I begin to believe

Let your address, be sunshine place
That your home should be a bright and joyful place

There's love and there's joy I'm told
I've been told that there's lots of love and joy in the world

Much more than your heart can hold
So much that you can't even describe it

It's there like the ring you would grab
Like the ring you would grab on a merry-go-round

On a merry-go-round
Or on a carousel

The world isn't half as gray
The world isn't as dull as it seems

With friends on a rainy day
With good friends, even a rainy day can be fun

But people keep away, when you wear a frown
But if you're unhappy and frown a lot, people might avoid you
