Happy Instead

歌詞

Well, I've been pacing this room for forty hours Crawling up the wall and trying not to call And I saw you walking in a supermarket aisle I didn't say a word 'cause you had the biggest smile And I've been thinking of you in the morning times You woke me up so soft, I forgot the world ain't kind I'd pull you in and you'd kiss me through a grin And you'd say you missed me when you were busy sleeping But what if I said, happy instead Is the way that I reckon it should be And if you'd call, you'd say that you're okay And I'd be wishing I was dead 'Cause you're happy instead, happy instead And I've been dreaming of the life we woulda had Happy at times but mostly just mad Maybe it all worked out, maybe it'd been fine But every day your smile ain't showing seems a waste of time So what if I said, happy instead Is the way that I reckon it should be And if you'd call, you'd say that you're okay And I'd be wishing I was dead 'Cause you're happy instead, happy instead And it's been ten years, I haven't called you once But you called last night and my child up and jumped He asked who you were and you did the same Handed me the phone and I couldn't recall your name What if I said, happy instead Is the way that I reckon I should be And if you'd call, you'd hear that I was okay And you'd be wishing you was dead 'Cause I'm happy instead, happy instead Oh, I'm happy instead Happy instead What if I said, happy instead Is the way that I reckon I should be And if you call, you'd hear that I'm okay And you'd be wishing you was dead 'Cause I'm happy instead
