Текст песни Stevie Wonder - Happy Birthday

(2x):      |     

You know it doesn't make much sense 
There ought to be a law against 
Anyone who takes offense 
At a day in your celebration 
Cause we all know in our minds 
That there ought to be a time 
That we can set aside 
To show just how much we love you 
And I'm sure you would agree 
It couldn't fit more perfectly 
Than to have a world party on the day you came to be 

Happy birthday to you 
Happy birthday to you

Happy birthday 

I just never understood 
How a man who died for good 
Could not have a day that would 
Be set aside for his recognition 
Because it should never be 
Just because some cannot see 
The dream as clear as he 
that they should make it become an illusion 
And we all know everything 
That he stood for time will bring 
For in peace our hearts will sing 
Thanks to Martin Luther King 

Happy birthday to you

Bridge: 
Why has there never been a holiday 
Where peace is celebrated 
all throughout the world 

The time is overdue 
For people like me and you 
Who know the way to truth 
Is love and unity to all God's children 
It should never be a great event 
And the whole day should be spent 
In full remembrance 
Of those who lived and died for the oneness of all people 
So let us all begin 
We know that love can win 
Let it out don't hold it in 
Sing it loud as you can 

Happy birthday to you

Ooh yeah 

                (repeat this until end) 
Happy     birthday... 

We know the key to unity all people 
It's in the dream that you had so long ago 
That lives in all of the hearts of the people 
That believe in unity 
We'll make the dream become a reality 
I know we will 
Because our hearts tell us so
