Are you trying to retrieve?
All of what you once believed
Are you ready to let go?
Are you ready to be free?
Are you ready to be alone?

Are you shopping for high heels?
Little dress that shows your knees?
Have you painted up your lips?
Are you getting what you need?
Are you happy on your own?
Are you really happy in his shakin' arms?

CHORUS:
Happiness is only fleeting
Love is no more than a lie
If hearts are only good for cheatin'
Life is nothing
(Life is nothing)

Are you pacing through the streets?
'Til you cannot feel your feet
When the people look at you
Can they see right the way through
Are you thinkin' that they know?
Were you ever happy in his shakin' arms?
