[Verse 1]
Don't wanna be the bottle that keeps a ship from sea
Don't wanna be a cage that keeps a bird from being free
Don't wanna keep a singer from a melody
Yeah, baby, that was you and me
[Chorus]
I wish I was heartless and kept you as mine
I wish it were my hands that held you at night
But all of the love that you wanted for us
You found it in someone new
So I'm not happy
But I'm happy for you
[Verse 2]
Just look at that smile, it's one I've never seen
You laugh a lot more than you did with me
Half of me knows we're not a perfect match
Half me let you go, half me wants you back
Oh, I feel so stupid, sitting here losing you when
[Chorus]
I could'vе been heartless and kept you as minе
I wish it were my hands that held you at night
But all of the love that you wanted for us
You found it in someone new
But I'm not happy
But I'm happy for you
[Bridge]
Moving on, finding somebody else
Maybe I'll find somebody else too
Baby, I only want the best for you
[Chorus]
But I wish I was heartless and kept you as mine
I wish it were my hands that held you at night
But all of the love that you wanted for us
You found it in someone new
So I'm not happy
But I'm happy for you
No, I'm not happy
But I'm happy for you

No. The thing is for me, I always get so weirded out if I write about a specific person. Sometimes, it could haunt you when you sing about it on stage. It’s definitely inspired by previous relationships combined into one. I’ve always felt that feeling of either you’re attracted or they’re attracted,...
It’s just nice to be putting more stuff out really. “happy for you” is going back to my Youtube roots in a way that it’s a piano song, it’s nice that it’s so stripped back. It’s a very raw, emotional break-up song. It’s addressing the way that at the end of a relationship sometimes, you have to lear...
