[Intro]
One, two
One, two, three
[Verse 1]
Baby, I almost threw up
When I found out that you hooked up
With a girl you met last week
I felt like I couldn't breathe
Baby, I can’t blame you
'Cause I did the same too
I'm just tryin’ to move on
'Cause I know our timing's wrong
[Pre-Chorus]
Bein' mad at you
Somethin' I can do
[Chorus]
I know I'm better being someone you loved
But I feel better being someone you want
Had no idea what this love would cost
I'm happy for you, but I'm sad for us
I’m happy for you, but I’m sad for us
[Verse 2]
You've been making changes
We’re in different phases
And none of them are you
But I still miss you, that's the truth
I wish you did things just to spite me
I wish you were a dick to me
But you were too nice, honestly
[Chorus]
I know I'm better being someone you loved
But I feel better being someone you want
Had no idea what this love would cost
I'm happy for you, but I’m sad for us
I'm happy for you, but I'm sad for us
[Bridge]
Sad for the memories
All of the coulda-be's
Sad for the better days we had to throw away
I wish it didn't have to be this way
[Chorus]
I know I'm better being someone you loved
But I feel better being someone you want
Had no idea what this love would cost
I'm happy for you, but I'm sad for us
[Chorus]
I feel guilty for cuttin' you off
But one of us had to make that call
Had no idea what this love would cost
I'm happy for you, but I'm sad for us
I'm happy for you, but I'm sad for us
I'm happy for you, I'm sad for us
I'm happy for you, but I'm sad for us
[Outro]
Happy, I'm happy, I promise
I'm just sad for us

GAYLE released happy for you on Sun Apr 26 2020.
“happy for you” is the first song I’m releasing that addresses a relationship. It represents my mindset through losing a significant other. I wrote the song because I was happy with the growth someone was having outside of me, but I was saddened by the fact that it was only adding space between.
