"Happy For You" lyrics

"Happy For You"

Once you left I went to space
I don't recognize this place
Where are you? Where are you?
Now I miss the smallest things
I'm not ready for this change
Where are you? Where are you?

Can't help but wonder

Are you ready, are you ready, are you ready now?
Do you forgive me? Am I something you can talk about?
I heard you're moving on and now you got it figured out
Well, I'm happy, I'm happy, I'm happy for you

Are you really gonna tell me that you're better now?
Hey, ain't it funny how we swore we couldn't live without
Each other, now you got another, got it figured out
Well, I'm happy, I'm happy, I'm happy for you
Happy for you
Just wanna be happy too

Love you, hate you all the same
Either way it takes up space
I had you, I had you
Haunted by the ghost of us
Sorry, now I've said too much
I had to, I had you

Can't help but wonder

Are you ready, are you ready, are you ready now?
Do you forgive me? Am I something you can talk about?
I heard you're moving on and now you got it figured out
Well, I'm happy, I'm happy, I'm happy for you

Are you really gonna tell me that you're better now?
Hey, ain't it funny how we swore we couldn't live without
Each other, now you got another, got it figured out
Well, I'm happy, I'm happy, I'm happy for you
Happy for you
Just wanna be happy too

I've lived with all this
Long enough, long enough
Don't you still wonder
If it could've been us?

Are you ready, are you ready, are you ready now?
Do you forgive me? Am I something you can talk about?
I heard you're moving on and now you got it figured out
I'm happy, I'm happy, I'm happy for you

Are you really gonna tell me that you're better now?
Hey, ain't it funny how we swore we couldn't live without
Each other, now you got another, got it figured out
Well, I'm happy, I'm happy, I'm happy for you
Happy for you
Just wanna be happy too
