Makes me happy if you know you want someone else
Makes me happy if you know you want someone else
Makes me happy if you know you want someone else
And I know, I let go, yeah, I know
Makes me happy if you know you want someone else
Makes me happy if you know you want someone else
Makes me happy if you know you want someone else
And I know, I let go, yeah, I know
Makes me happy now that I know that
You've got someone else to deal with all your heartaches
I don't know how you could've wanted it to last this long
Yeah, it was over before it even started
Saying sorry won't make it right, I know
I wasn't there when you needed me
I let you down, I hurt you
And I wanted you to know
Makes me happy if you know you want someone else
Makes me happy if you know you want someone else
Makes me happy if you know you want someone else
And I know, I let go, yeah, I know
I feel heavy, yeah, 'cause I know that
It was me who gave to you all of those heartaches
Now, I don't know how you could've wanted it to last this long
Yeah, it was over before it even started
Saying sorry won't make it right, I know
I wasn't there when you needed me
I let you down, I hurt you
And I wanted you to know
Makes me happy if you know you want someone else
Makes me happy if you know you want someone else
Makes me happy if you know you want someone else
And I know, I let go, yeah, I know
Makes me happy if you know you want someone else
Makes me happy if you know you want someone else
Makes me happy if you know you want someone else
And I know, I let go, yeah, I know
Maybe we could change
Our whole world
Leave the past alone
Maybe we could change
We could try
Leave it all alone
I don't need to lie
Anymore
A new world has set me free
Maybe you could try
(To) put aside
The past for once
And, I don't need to lie
Anymore
A new world has set me free
Now, maybe you could try
To put aside
The past for once and for all
Makes me happy if you know you want someone else
Makes me happy if you know you want someone else
Makes me happy if you know you want someone else
And I know, I let go, yeah, I know
Makes me happy if you know you want someone else
Makes me happy if you know you want someone else
Makes me happy if you know you want someone else
And I know, I let go, yeah, I know
