Happier Alone

On the shore and i’m waving goodbye

To a ship that has sailed

Maybe it’s only far to my eyes

It’s getting harder to tell

I could make a flotation device

It wouldn’t carry me well

But well enough just to get to your side

So i can know how it felt

I only wanted you to be

What you’ve always been to me

Never saw it differently

I can handle

All the pains of a broken heart

I can manage

All the days that we’ll spend a part

If i know

When you go

You will be happier alone

I’m unsure if your saying goodbye

By saying nothing at all

Or maybe it’s just a matter of time

Before you give me a call

I’ve been makin it up in my mind

I’m sure i’m guessin it wrong

The only way that i’ll know if i’m right

Is when you’re willing to talk

I only wanted you to be

What you’ve always been to me

Never saw it differently

I can handle

All the pains of a broken heart

I can manage

All the days that we’ll spend a part

If i know

When you go

You will be happier alone

When you go

Then i’ll know

You will be happier
