[Intro]
Lately, I ve been, I ve been thinking
I want you to be happier, I want you to be happier
[Verse]
When the morning comes
When we see what we ve become
In the cold light of day we re a flame in the wind
Not the fire that we ve begun
Every argument, every word we can t take back
Cause with all that has happened
I think that we both know the way that the story ends
[Chorus]
Then only for a minute
I want to change my mind
Cause this just don t feel right to me
I want to raise your spirits
I want to see you smile but
Know that means I ll have to leave
[Instrumental]
[Post-Chorus]
Know that means I ll have to leave
Lately, I ve been, I ve been thinking
I want you to be happier, I want you to be happier
[Verse]
When the evening falls
And I m left there with my thoughts
And the image of you being with someone else
Well it s eating me up inside
But we ran our course, we pretended we re okay
Now if we jump together at least we can swing
Far away from the wreck we made
[Chorus]
Then only for a minute
I want to change my mind
Cause this just don t feel right to me
I want to raise your spirits
I want to see you smile but
Know that means I ll have to leave
[Instrumental]
[Post-Chorus]
Know that means I ll have to leave
Lately, I ve been, I ve been thinking
I want you to be happier, I want you to be happier
[Bridge]
So I ll go, I ll go
I will go, go, go
So I ll go, I ll go
I will go, go, go
[Pre-chorus]
Lately, I ve been, I ve been thinking
I want you to be happier, I want you to be happier
Even thought I might not like this
I think that you ll be happier, I
want you to be happier
[Chorus]
Then only for a minute
I want to change my mind
Cause this just don t feel right to me
I want to raise your spirits
I want to see you smile but
Know that means I ll have to leave
[Instrumental]
[Post-Chorus]
Know that means I ll have to leave
Lately, I ve been, I ve been thinking
I want you to be happier, I want you to be happier
[Outro]
So I ll go, I ll go
I will go, go, go
