You Could Be Happy

You could be happy and I won t know

But you weren t happy the day I watched you go

And all the things that I wished I had not said

Are played on lips till it s madness in my head

Is it too late to remind you how we were

But not our last days of silence, screaming, blur

Most of what I remember makes me sure

I should have stopped you from walking out the door

You could be happy, I hope you are

You made me happier than I d been by far

Somehow everything I own smells of you

And for the tiniest moment it s all not true

Do the things that you always wanted to

Without me there to hold you back, don t think, just do

More than anything I want to see you go

Take a glorious bite out of the whole world
