[Intro]
 Lately, I've been, I've been thinking
 I want you to be happier, I want you to be happier

 [Verse 1]
 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 this 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

 [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 2]
 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 swim
 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

 [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 though 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

 [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
