“If You’re Happy” (A Love Song to My Ex-Fiancé)

Lyrics

Verse 1:
I used to hear your heartbeat
In the quiet of the night
I never thought I’d lose it
Never thought I’d lose the light
You gave me all your love, girl
I just let it slip away
Now I see you standing distant
And I don’t know what to say

Pre-Chorus:
I should’ve held you closer
I should’ve fought to stay
Now I watch the way you smile
And wonder if it’s real today

Chorus:
If you’re happy, that’s all I need
Even if it ain’t with me
I’d give the world just to see you shine
Even if it means you’re not mine
I was blind, now I see
You deserved so much more from me
And if your heart has found its way
I’ll love you enough to let you stay… or walk away

Verse 2:
I see our little girl now
She’s got your eyes, your grace
She asks me why you’re different
Why you don’t laugh the same
And I just hold her tightly
Say, “Mama’s strong and kind”
But deep inside I’m breaking
‘Cause I know I crossed the line

Pre-Chorus:
I should’ve held you closer
I should’ve fought to stay
Now I pray that love still finds you
Even if I’m in the way

Chorus:
If you’re happy, that’s all I need
Even if it ain’t with me
I’d give the world just to see you shine
Even if it means you’re not mine
I was blind, now I see
You deserved so much more from me
And if your heart has found its way
I’ll love you enough to let you stay… or walk away

Bridge:
But if there’s still a spark left in you
A place where I belong
I’d spend forever proving
I could right what I did wrong
But if it’s too late to change things
I won’t stand in your way
Just promise me you’ll be happy
That’s all I need to say

Outro:
If you’re happy, that’s all I need
Even if it ain’t with me
I’ll hold my love in quiet pain
And love you enough to let you stay… or walk away
