We Were Happy Once

We were happy, we were happy, we were happy once

Sometimes I play a game To see if I still love you Pretend we never met And I know nothing of you

When looking at your face Would I still see the promise And would you still choose me? Come on now let's be honest

It takes a dark and lonely sky To see the brightest shining light You can't deny

We were happy, we were happy, we were happy once We were happy, we were happy, we were happy once Not long ago, not long ago, not so long ago

Today I caught a glimpse Of you around the corner I saw something I'd forgotten And I loved you more than ever

It takes a dark and hopeless night To see the starlight in your eyes I can't deny

We were happy, we were happy, we were happy once We were happy, we were happy, we were happy once Not long ago, not long ago, not so long ago...
