Lyrics

Happy lovers, back together.
Uh, and I do feel proud.
Happy lovers, reunited.
Uh, and I do feel proud now.

I'm not the type to boost as you know,
Thou it was me who brought them back together.

He is so kind, and she is so clever.
But they don't want me now,
Hanging around.

Happy lovers, at last, at last, reunited.
Happy lovers at last, reunited.

I rang to her to explain of how
He really wants to see you again.
I said more or less the same thing to
Him too, which wasn't true.

And now they walk, hand in hand,
All is planned, by the silent glance
I believe, that only lovers share,
And I'm proud to have done,
Something good for once.

And she is so kind, and he's so clever
But they don't need me now,
Hanging around.

Happy lovers, at last, at last reunited.
Happy lovers, at last reunited.
Oh, happy lovers, at last reunited.
Oh, happy lovers, at last, at last, at last reunited.
