It was a stupid mistake
I’ve played it over again
I felt it starting to break
but oh what a storm we were in
Leveled us both with a crash
You sped away in the dark
And I’ve only driven me mad
replaying how we came apart -But
I’m gonna be happy be happy
without you around
I’ll figure it out
And I’m gonna be happy be happy
just give me some time
I'm gonna be fine
I fell to pieces for you
and everything we couldn’t weather
and how there was nothing we could do this time
that would make it all better
And I’ve heard a lot of good lies
But there’s one I could never quite shake:
that sorrow’s some kind of good sign
I should carry with me to the grave
to I’m gonna be happy be happy
without you around
I’ll figure it out
And I’m gonna be happy be happy
just give me some time
I'm gonna be fine
This is everything I hoped I’d find a way to say to you:
Darling, it’s a shame I couldn’t be a better place for you
but I can’t love by self-destruct
I’ve gotta give it up
so I’m gonna be happy be happy
without you around
I’ll figure it out
And I’m gonna be happy be happy
just give me some time
I'm gonna be fine
I’m gonna be happy
without you around
I’ll figure it out
I’m gonna be happy
just give me some time
I'm gonna be fine
