Peter Cetera - Happy Man Lyrics






Merely by chance
Very unsuspecting
You caught my heart
Unprotecting me
Now I've fallen in love with you

Just when I thought
Life was free and easy
You came along to me
Soft and breezy
Now I've fallen in love with you

[chorus]
And for the first time in my life
I know what it's like to be a happy man
Happy man
And for the first time in my life
You've given me something I can't understand
Now that I'm a happy man

Be with me now
Love me forever
Leaving you lady
Is something that I'd never do
I've fallen in love with you

All of my life it seems I have waited
Now I can say all these words I have stated are true
I've fallen in love with you
I've fallen in love with you

[chorus]

  17. C.... C....

    Sorry but this version is nowhere near the original or the Jason Sheff version. Personally, Jason's version live in Japan blows this away by far.

    C.... C....

    That is certainly only your opinion. IMO there is not another voice as rich & perfect as Peter Cetera.

    C.... C....

    Carlos Cruz - nothing beats the original my friend...Peter Cetera all the way !

    C.... C....

    If you actually read my post, I said that this version is nowhere near the ORIGINAL. This version here is Cetera on his own POST Chicago.Not the original.

    C.... C....

    Carlos Cruz - you clearly said that "Jason's live version in Japan blows this away by far".... i agree with you Shaider...Peter Cetera all the way.

    I am seeing this guy perform live next week, and I couldn't be more excited about it. Those who do not recognize his contribution to popular music need to take a class.

    20140914.happy70.Bday mr CETERA!!!

  52. E.... J....

    This is, quite frankly, the reason why Chicago is my all time favorite band. This mans voice gives me the chills.

  53. A.... M....

    I love this version so much

    A.... M....

    Gorgeous voice...that smile...love Peter

  54. j.... ....

    Esta versión destruye la magia de la versión con Chicago, le quita romanticismo...

    j.... ....

    jcbuitre Coincido con usted

  55. D.... H....

    The Chicago version always seemed like something we'd consider a bonus track nowadays. The vocal scats, the one single chorus in the middle, the talking intro. I was happy that Cetera finished it up and did this more lush version as an alternative. Its a beautiful song...

  56. t.... ....

    This version is absolutely FANTASTIC!

  57. F.... J....

    Beautiful version

  58. d.... ....

    I really like this version of the song.  Chicago was good but this is REALLY good.

  59. j.... s....

    as a "Soldier of Love", ...I must say this is nice & Smooooth ..!!!!!!!!

  60. I.... B....

    ficou melhor que a primeira versão,amei!!!

  61. M.... K....

  64. T.... ....

    Every song i listen from him i have the chills!

  65. K.... K....

    the chills...........

  66. e.... ....

    this song means so much to me...

  67. D.... ....

    Ohh how wish there will be more like this song nowadays.

  68. m.... a....

    @slidomix69 Do you know is their is a lyric version of Happy Man. My fiance sent me this song....and there are a few words I'm not sure of?

  69. G.... G....

    ouch.....thrilling voice and will be forever

  70. j.... m....

    Puta que pariu!!!! Não se faz mais música com antigamente. Viva os anos dourados (de chumbo) que só entrava em nossas rádios músicas lindas como essa. O que significa? Pouco importa...tinham melodia, falavam ao coração, nos deixavam mais romanticos.Era bem melhor que essa baboseira toda de sertaneja, funck, etc etc...que só mostra bundas, peitos e drogas, depressão, e muita merda junta, junta tudo isso e vá tudo pro inferno, como diz o nosso Rei Roberto.

  71. f.... ....

    Great! One of my favorite songs..(=

  72. F.... G....

    BEAUTIFUL!

  73. S.... E....

    great song

  74. w.... ....

    gave me chills too!

  75. P.... M....

    like the updated version..

  76. C.... L....

    love this song...Happy Man..I fell in love with Peter Cetera too...thanks for the video! God bless.

  77. n.... ....

    @manguera9 .. plus where's the acoustic guitar intro? =/

  78. g.... ....

    I love Siberian Folk Music played backwards.

  79. i.... ....

    I hope Justin makes an Acapella version.

  80. z.... ....

    @manguera9 so true....percussion and kind of that beat...just sweet.

  81. z.... ....

    @57steely Yes, you put it so well...the original still catches your aura of the song!

  82. c.... p....

    this version doesnt top the original, the original version is more hot and romantic ,cause had more latin percusion etc.

  83. A.... M....

    i love this song <3 i love the way he sings it (:

  84. D.... J....

    A little more acoustical than the original - the only one who can improve on Cetera is … Cetera

  85. d.... ....

    'been looking for this version... fantastic voice. thanks cta1969chicago for posting.

  86. d.... ....

    one of the most sexiest songs ever written. love it, love it, xoxox
