Happy Landing
You better beware, my friends all told me.
when they saw that i was falling for you. you better beware.
now, they told me that girl ain't gonna be true.
She'll have you walking with your head in the air.
have you thinking that she really, really care.
then-a, then she'll let you down, she'll really let you down.
She's a girl with no understanding.
and when she's getting tired of you hanging around
she'll let you drop and say... have a happy landing.
Oh but i fell for you anyway.
i didn't care what my friends have to say.
'cause i was so glad that i had found you.
i build my whole world right around you.
You had me hope on a lie for awhile. (?)
have me thinking you'd be mine for awhile.
then-a, then you let me down, you really let me down.
'cause you're a girl with no understanding.
and when you're getting tired of me hanging around
you let me drop and said... come on, have a happy landing.

Gonna keep you in suspense for awhile, yeah.
