Lyrics It Wasn't Easy To Be Happy For You - The Lumineers

It Wasn't Easy To Be Happy For You

On the last time we met, your love was there
You held my hand, bit your tongue
Shut me out, spilled my blood all around
Yeah, it wasn’t easy to be happy for you
Yeah, I took the poison praying you’d feel it too
You held your punches back and I left the room
Yeah, it wasn’t easy to be happy for you
All alone you always felt
We dragged you down, gave me hell
Made your bed, now you sleep
On your own, yes, well, see…
Yeah, it wasn’t easy to be happy for you
Yeah, I took the poison praying you’d feel it too
You held your punches back and I left the room
Yeah, it wasn’t easy to be happy for you
I know that you tried
But you’re no friend of mine
Falling apart
You played it the best
A dame in distress
Yeah, it wasn’t easy to be happy for you
Yeah, I wrapped my neck and prayed that you’d feel the noose
I saw the restaurant table for two
Yeah, it wasn’t easy to be happy for you
Yeah, it wasn’t easy to be happy for you
Yeah, I took the poison praying you’d feel it too
You held your punches back and I left the room
Yeah, it wasn’t easy to be happy for you
Yeah, yeah
Yeah
