The Happier One (retro style)
This isn't a race
There's no finishing line
I wanted to be the happier
I wish that I could tell you I was happy that you found someone
Glad to know ten years meant so much, it's only been a month
I see you're out in the sun, doing things you've never done with me
I wonder what she has I couldn't give to you
You packed up your heart, delivered it straight to her
Your mind has took off flying
I'm still at the tram stop, thinking
This isn't a race
There's no finishing line
Can't keep up with your pace
I feel like I've fallen behind
This isn't a battle
There's no prize to be won
Get off your high horse, lower the saddle
I wanted to be the happier one
Is this a race, a race, a race?
Oh how fast is your pace
I'm losing this race
I'm losing this race
I wish that I could tell you I don't look up any photos of her
Is she smarter, is she prettier, is this what you prefer?
I still hear you in bed pulling me close whispering let's get hitched
I wonder if she's gonna be the next girl you say this to
You buried our memories 10 feet below ground
You've boarded the train, sprinting away
My hand in the air, still waving, hesitating
Woah ooooh
Woah ooooh
This isn't a race
There's no finishing line
Can't keep up with your pace
I feel like I've fallen behind
This isn't a battle
There's no prize to be won
Get off your high horse, lower the saddle
I wanted to be the happier one
How fast is your pace
Caught a glimpse of your face
I'm losing this race, this race
Is this a race
How fast is your pace
A glimpse of your face
I'm losing this race
Is this a race
There's no finishing line
I wanted to be the happier
I wish that I could tell you I was happy that you found someone
Glad to know ten years meant so much, it's only been a month
I see you're out in the sun, doing things you've never done with me
I wonder what she has I couldn't give to you
You packed up your heart, delivered it straight to her
Your mind has took off flying
I'm still at the tram stop, thinking
This isn't a race
There's no finishing line
Can't keep up with your pace
I feel like I've fallen behind
This isn't a battle
There's no prize to be won
Get off your high horse, lower the saddle
I wanted to be the happier one
Is this a race, a race, a race?
Oh how fast is your pace
I'm losing this race
I'm losing this race
I wish that I could tell you I don't look up any photos of her
Is she smarter, is she prettier, is this what you prefer?
I still hear you in bed pulling me close whispering let's get hitched
I wonder if she's gonna be the next girl you say this to
You buried our memories 10 feet below ground
You've boarded the train, sprinting away
My hand in the air, still waving, hesitating
Woah ooooh
Woah ooooh
This isn't a race
There's no finishing line
Can't keep up with your pace
I feel like I've fallen behind
This isn't a battle
There's no prize to be won
Get off your high horse, lower the saddle
I wanted to be the happier one
How fast is your pace
Caught a glimpse of your face
I'm losing this race, this race
Is this a race
How fast is your pace
A glimpse of your face
I'm losing this race
Is this a race
