You Could Be Happy lyrics
by Snow Patrol





You could be happy and I won't know

But you weren't happy the day I watched you go



And all the things that I wished I had not said

Are played on lips 'till it's madness in my head



Is it too late to remind you how we were

But not our last days of silence, screaming, blur



Most of what I remember makes me sure

I should have stopped you from walking out the door



You could be happy, I hope you are

You made me happier than I'd been by far



Somehow everything I own smells of you

And for the tiniest moment it's all not true



Do the things that you always wanted to

Without me there to hold you back, don't think, just do



More than anything I want to see you go

Take a glorious bite out of the whole world
