Happy Too
Finding Happiness Beyond Goodbyes
Lyrics
Thanks for the memories
Expressing gratitude for past experiences and memories.
Thank you for all the things
Thanking someone for various contributions and actions.
But I don't owe you for that
Rejecting the idea of being indebted for those past actions.
You were a distant dream
Describing a person or a relationship as a distant, unattainable dream.
One I could never keep
Acknowledging the impossibility of maintaining that dream.
And I'm sick of being sad
Expressing frustration with a prolonged state of sadness.
I spent a really long time
Reflecting on the effort to correct past mistakes and make things right.
Making all my wrongs right
Continuing the theme of self-improvement and personal growth.
And I had to realize I can't make you love me
Realizing that one cannot force someone to love them.
I'm happy you're happy
Expressing happiness for the other person's well-being.
But I wanna be happy too
Desiring personal happiness despite the happiness of the other person.
I'm happy you're happy
Reiterating happiness for the other person's joy.
But why's it gotta mean I loose
Questioning why personal happiness has to come at the cost of losing something.
It's time I pick my heart up off your shelf
Deciding to reclaim one's own emotional well-being.
It's time I choose
Making a choice for oneself.
I'm happy you're happy
Reiterating the happiness for the other person but expressing a personal desire for happiness.
But I wanna be happy too
Affirming the personal desire for happiness.
I wanna be happy too
Repeating the wish for personal happiness.
Love isn't vertigo
Stating that love shouldn't feel disorienting or overwhelming.
I'd love you to pull me close
Expressing a desire for intimacy and closeness in love.
But you always take it back
Noting a pattern of retracting affection or closeness.
I'm gonna walk away
Deciding to walk away for positive change.
All for the better change
Committing to a change for personal improvement.
Cause I'm sick of being sad I spent a really long time
Reiterating the frustration with prolonged sadness.
Making all my wrongs right
Continuing the theme of correcting past mistakes.
And I had to realize I can't make you love me
Reiterating the realization that love cannot be forced.
I'm happy you're happy
Expressing happiness for the other person's happiness.
But I wanna be happy too
Repeating the desire for personal happiness.
I'm happy you're happy
Reaffirming happiness for the other person.
But why's it gotta mean I loose
Questioning the cost of personal happiness in relation to the other person's joy.
It's time I pick my heart up off your shelf
Deciding to reclaim one's heart and make personal choices.
It's time I choose
Making a decision for personal well-being.
I'm happy you're happy
Expressing happiness for the other person's happiness.
But I wanna be happy too
Reiterating the personal desire for happiness.
I wanna be happy too
Repeating the wish for personal happiness.
I'm happy you're happy
Expressing happiness for the other person's well-being.
But I wanna be happy too
Repeating the personal desire for happiness.
I'm happy you're happy
Reaffirming happiness for the other person's joy.
But why's it gotta mean I loose
Questioning the sacrifice of personal happiness for the other person's joy.
It's time I pick my heart up off your shelf
Deciding to reclaim one's heart and make personal choices.
It's time I choose
Making a decision for personal well-being.
I'm happy you're happy
Expressing happiness for the other person's happiness.
But I wanna be happy too
Reiterating the personal desire for happiness.
I wanna be happy too
Repeating the wish for personal happiness.
