Lyrics of It Wasn't Easy To Be Happy For You by The Lumineers

verse

On the last time we met, your love was there
You held my hand, bit your tongue
Shut me out, spilled my blood all around

chorus

Yeah, It Wasn't Easy to Be Happy for You
Yeah, I took the poison praying you'd feel it too
You held your punches back and I left the room
Yeah, it wasn't easy to be happy for you

verse

All alone you always fell
We dragged you down, gave me help
Made your bed, now you sleep
On your own, yes, well, see

chorus

Yeah, It Wasn't Easy to Be Happy for You
Yeah, I took the poison praying you'd feel it too
You held your punches back and I left the room
Yeah, it wasn't easy to be happy for you

verse

I know that you tried
But you're no friend of mine
Falling apart
You played it the best
A dame in distress

chorus

Yeah, it wasn't easy to be happy for uou
Yeah, I wrapped my neck and prayed that you'd feel the noose
I saw the restaurant table for two
Yeah, it wasn't easy to be happy for you

chorus

Yeah, it wasn't easy to be happy for you
Yeah, I took the poison praying you'd feel it too
You held your punches back and I left the room
Yeah, it wasn't easy to be happy for you

outro

Yeah
Yeah

outro

Yeah
