Lately, I've been, I've been thinking
I want you to be happier, I want you to be happier
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 we both know the way that the way that this story ends

Then only for a minute, I want to change my mind
'Cause this just don't feel right to me
I wanna raise you spirits
I want to see you smile
But know it means I have to leave
Know it means I have to leave

Lately, I've been, I've been thinking
I want you to be happier, I want you to be happier
When the evening falls, and I'm left there with my thoughts
And the image of you being with someone else
Well, that eating me up inside
But we run our course, we pretend that we're okay
Now if we jump together at least we can swim away fro the wreck we made

Then only for a minute, I want to change my mind
'Cause this just don't feel right to me
I wanna raise you spirits
I want to see you smile
But know it means I have to leave
Know it means I have to leave
Lately, I've been, I've been thinking
I want you to be happier, I want you to be happier
So I'll go, I'll go
I will go, go, go
So I'll go, I'll go
I will go, go, go

Lately, I've been, I've been thinking
I want you to be happier, I want you to be happier
Even though I might not like this
I think that you'll be happier, I want you to be happier

Then only for a minute (Then only for a minute)
I want to change my mind
'Cause this just don't feel right to me
I wanna raise you spirits (wanna raise you spirits)
I want to see you smile
But know it means I have to leave
Know it means I have to leave
Lately, I've been, I've been thinking
I want you to be happier, I want you to be happier

So I'll go, I'll go
I will go, go, go
