We built a home upon this solid ground
Made out of bricks and mud, we settled down
Made a fire and it burned so bright, so long
We watched the flames with our hearts entwined
The smell of embers, roses and wine
Photograph in my memory so strong
Whatever makes you happy
Whatever quells your fears
Whatever makes you stronger
Whatever dries your tears
You know I love you more babe
Than any jealous man could do
Whatever makes you happy
That's what I want for you
People change like the swell of the tide
I saw a storm blowing deep inside you
And as I watched you fell into his arms
You said "I'm sorry I've let you down"
And you don't need me hanging around here
If I stay I will only bring you harm
Whatever makes you happy
Whatever quells your fears
Whatever makes you stronger
Whatever dries your tears
Even if my heartbreak
Is a price I have to pay
If you're happier without me
I wouldn't make you stay
For I love you more than living
You're the air that I breath
No matter what you've done
You're the only one I need
Most men would only want you
And they've got you locked away
But this flame will keep on burning
If you go or if you stay
Whatever makes you happy
Whatever quells your fears
Whatever makes you stronger
Whatever dries your tears
If i could be the one, dear
There's nothing I won't do
Whatever makes you happy
That's what I want for you
Whatever makes you happy
That's what I want for you
