He should be happy that he’s no longer in this toxic relationship, but he’s heartbroken, thinking that no one will ever love him like she did.
She broke up with him, although in the back of his head he knew it was bound to happen.
I should laugh, but I cry
Because your love has passed me by
You took me by surprise
You didn't realize but I was waiting
Time goes slowly, but carries on
And now the best years have come and gone
You took me by surprise
I didn't realize that you were laughing
Laughing, cause you're doin' it to me
Laughing, it ain't the way it should be
You took away everything I had
You put the hurt on me
Laughing, cause you're doin' it to me
Laughing, it ain't the way it should be
You took away everything I had
You put the hurt on me
I go alone now, calling your name
After losing at the game
You took me by surprise
I didn't realize that you were laughing
Time goes slowly, but carries on
And now the best years
The best years have come and gone
You took me by surprise
I didn't realize that you were laughing
Laughing, cause you're doin' it to me
Laughing, it ain't the way it should be
You took away everything I had
You put the hurt on me
Laughing, cause you're doin' it to me
Laughing, it ain't the way it should be
You took away everything I had
You put the hurt on me
Laughing, ha ha ha ha ha ha
Laughing, ha ha ha ha ha ha
Laughing, what, you laughing at me?
Laughing, what, you laughing at me?
Laughing, oh, what you do on the weekend?
Laughing, I wanna look when you're laughing
Laughing, I wanna look when you're laughing
