GAYLE Lyrics
(One, two)
(One, two, three)
Baby, I almost threw up
When I found out that you hooked up
With a girl you met last week
I felt like I couldn't breathe
Baby, I can't blame you
'Cause I did the same too
I'm just tryin' to move on
'Cause I know our timing's wrong
Bein' mad at you
Somethin' I can't do
I know I'm better bein' someone you loved
But I feel better bein' someone you want
Had no idea what this love would cost
I'm happy for you, but I'm sad for us
I'm happy for you, but I'm sad for us
You've been makin' changes
We're in different phases
And none of them are you
But I still miss you, that's the truth
I wish you did things
Just to spite me
I wish you were a dick to me
But you were too nice, honestly
I know I'm better bein' someone you loved
But I feel better bein' someone you want
Had no idea what this love would cost
I'm happy for you, but I'm sad for us
I'm happy for you, but I'm sad for us
Sad for the memories, all of the 'could-have-been's
Sad for the better days we had to throw away
I wish it didn't have to be this way
I know I'm better bein' someone you loved
But I feel better bein' someone you want
Had no idea what this love would cost
I'm happy for you, but I'm sad for us
I feel guilty for cuttin' you off
But one of us had to make that call
Had no idea what this love would cost
I'm happy for you, but I'm sad for us
I'm happy for you, but I'm sad for us
I'm happy for you, but I'm sad for us
I'm happy for you
But I'm sad for us
Happy, I'm happy, I promise
I'm just sad for us
