One of many collaborations between Linda Perry and P!nk created back in 2003 originally for the latter’s third studio album – Try This. The previously unreleased track found its way onto the soundtrack of a documentary film ‘Served Like a Girl’ consisting mostly of Linda Perry’s productions.
[Verse 1]
You said you lost yourself
Somewhere along away
You needed time to figure it out
You must've known that I would
Kindly let you go
I always knew how to take a bow
[Chorus]
It's sad that I can't be there
'Cause I know that you're sinking
If only I could be there
And if you think you're happy
Then I know that you're crazy
'Cause if it makes you happy
Then I'm halfway gone
[Verse 2]
You had all these plans
You made your great escape
And now you struggle just to breathe
I had a plan, remember?
But it got thrown away
I wish you still needed me
[Chorus]
It's sad that I can't be there
'Cause I know that you're sinking
If only I could be there
And if you think you're happy
Then I know that you're crazy
'Cause if it makes you happy
Then I'm halfway gone
[Bridge]
I watch you suffer
Drowning in the water
But I, I know I can't come save you this time
So I keep reaching and I can't seem to find you
I know if I hold on I'll be drowning by your side
But if it makes you happy
Really makes you happy
If it makes you happy
Then I'm halfway gone
[Chorus]
It's sad that I can't be there
Cause I know that you're sinking
If only I could be there
And if you think you're happy
Then I know that you're crazy
'Cause if it makes you happy
It's sad that I can't be there
Cause I know that you're sinking
If only I could be there
And if you think you're happy
Then I know that you're crazy
'Cause if it makes you happy
Then I’m halfway gone
