I Could Be Happy With You
Broadway Cast Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

I don't claim that I am psychic
But one look at you and I kick
Away every scruple
I learnt as a pupil
In school my dear

I'm not one to make predictions
But I've thrown off all restrictions,

And I don't mind confessing
I think it's a blessing
That you are here

Though I'm prepared to find I'm wrong
I've got a funny feeling we belong together

I could be happy with you
If you could be happy with me

I'd be contented to live anywhere
What would I care
As long as you were there?

Skies may not always be blue

But one thing is clear as can be

I know that I could be happy with you, my darling

If you could be happy with me.

I could be happy with you
If you could be happy with me
I'd be contented to live anywhere
What would I care
As long as you were there?
Skies may not always be blue
But one thing is clear as can be

I know that I could be happy with you, my darling
If you could be happy with me.

Line by Line Meaning

I don't claim that I am psychic
I'm not saying that I have supernatural abilities

But one look at you and I kick
However, as soon as I saw you, something inside me changed and I felt strong emotions

Away every scruple
I let go of all my doubts and concerns

I learnt as a pupil
Which I learned in my earlier stages of life

In school my dear
Back in my educational days

I'm not one to make predictions
I don't usually foretell the future

But I've thrown off all restrictions
However, I've removed all limitations or constraints

And I don't mind confessing
I'm comfortable admitting

I think it's a blessing
That I feel fortunate

That you are here
That you are present right now

Though I'm prepared to find I'm wrong
Even so, I'm open to the possibility of error

I've got a funny feeling we belong together
I have this strange intuition that we are meant to be together

I could be happy with you
I have the potential to be happy with you

If you could be happy with me
As long as you reciprocate the same happiness

I'd be contented to live anywhere
I would feel satisfied residing in any location

What would I care
Why would I be concerned

As long as you were there?
As long as I have you by my side?

Skies may not always be blue
Although the weather may not always be perfect

But one thing is clear as can be
One undeniable fact is

I know that I could be happy with you, my darling
I'm certain that I could experience joy alongside you, my love

If you could be happy with me.
If we both could feel happiness together.

Why Heidi, Alana, and Jared's anger is justified, because some people seem to think otherwise:

Heidi - Heidi's anger, seems to me, the most easily justifiable, since Evan, her only son, essentially said that he'd rather spend time with the Murphys and considers them his family, instead of his own mother. Heidi was constantly trying her best to provide for herself and Evan, but having to constantly work, she unintentionally pushed Evan away, and made him feel like she didn't care. Heidi in turn gets pissed off at Evan for choosing some random family over herself, Evan's own mother, who's done nothing but work to try and help Evan.

Alana - Alana's more upset about the Connor project. She was spotting inconsistencies throughout the emails, and it didn't make any sense. Now, Alana had dedicated herself and so much of her time to the Connor project, because she didn't want people to feel helpless or alone, like she had. Her realizing that Evan had used the Connor project to get more popular is essentially why she gets upset at him.

Jared - Jared, dispite what people seem to think, isn't just another flat character made for the purpose of being a jerk to the protagonist or just the comic relief. In the script, it's implied that Jared is extremely insecure about himself, but he masks it with fake confidence and snarky comments. He also does care a lot about Evan(he almost immediately agreed to help Evan, Evan always goes to Jared if something's wrong, etc). Evan, when he got what he wanted, just left Jared, who didn't have any other friends, behind, and only came back when he wanted something from him. This left Jared feeling used and betrayed(His line before his solo is literally supposed to be spoken like a "helpless, heartbroken child")

If anyone wants to add anything, feel free to!

For those who don’t understand Evan’s response to mother:

The difference between Heidi and the Murphys is that the Murphys treated Evan like a normal person*. They weren’t constantly trying to *fix him. Yes, Heidi was a loving parent. But her approach to parenting was *fear-driven*. Evan would see her and she’d immediately be like, “Have you been writing your letters?”, “Have you been taking Ativan?”, “Have you been working on those scholarship essays?”, “Have you seized the day and talked to people lately?”

All that would do was bring Evan stress and pressure, making him feel like he has fallen short yet again. When he sees her, he is just caught with inner guilt, because she expects so much of him and he can’t meet her expectations. He would try and try to be better. But it wouldn’t be enough. The letters wouldn’t work. The Ativan wouldn’t work. His fear was still too great for him to overcome. And when his mother would smile at him, he could sense sadness beneath that smile.

When the only thing your parent (/only friend) talks to you about is what’s wrong with you, it’s no wonder Evan liked the Murphys so much. It’s not that Evan hated his mom. He just needed someone who dealt with him like a normal person, rather than a mess.

If you’ve read all the way through, I hope you understand my perspective and know that I’m not demonizing Heidi. She was a good mom. She just could have handled things better. It’s not wrong to want to help people improve. But at the end of the day, people want to be seen as people.

LYRICS🎵:
So you found a place where the grass is greener
And you jumped the fence to the other side
Is it good?
Are they giving you a world I could never provide?

Well I hope you're proud of your big decision
Yeah, I hope it's all that you want and more
Now you're free from the agonizing life you were living before

And you say what you need to say
So that you get to walk away
It would kill you to have to stay trapped
When you've got something new
Well I'm sorry I had it rough
And I'm sorry I'm not enough
Thank God they rescued you

So you got what you always wanted
So you got your dream come true
Good for you
Good for you, you, you
Got a taste of a life so perfect
So you did what you had to do
Good for you
Good for you

Does it cross your mind to be slightly sorry?
Do you even care that you might be wrong?
Was it fun?
Well I hope you had a blast while you dragged me along

And you say what you need to say
And you play who you need to play
And if somebody's in your way
Crush them and leave them behind
Well I guess if I'm not of use
Go ahead, you can cut me loose
Go ahead now, I won't mind

I'll shut my mouth and I'll let you go
Is that good for you?
Would that be good for you, you, you?
I'll just sit back while you run the show
Is that good for you?
Would that be good for you, you, you?

All I need is some time to think
But the boat is about to sink
Can't erase what I wrote in ink
Tell me how could you change the story?
All the words that I can't take back
Like a train coming off the track
'Cause the rails and my bones all crack
I've got to find a way to
Stop it, stop it! Just let me out!

So you got what you always wanted
So you got your dream come true
Good for you
Good for you, you, you
Got a taste of a life so perfect
Now you say that you're someone new

Good for you
Good for you
Good for you
Good for you

So you got what you always wanted

For everyone comparing this song to "Congratulations" I hope you're satisfied with this:

Eliza:
So you found someone else who made you 'helpless'
And you spread the news of it far and wide
Is it true? Was she giving you a world I could never provide?
Well I hope you're proud of your big decision
Yeah, I hope your legacy is secure!
Now you're free from the conflicted life you were living before!

And you say what you need to say
So that you get to walk away
It would kill you to have to stay loyal
When you found someone new!
Well I'm sorry you had it rough
Sorry I couldn't be enough
Thank God, she rescued you!

So you got what you always wanted
So you couldn't just 'be true'
Good for you!
Good for you! You! You!
Got a taste of a life so perfect
So you did what you had to do!
Good for you!
Good for you! You! You!

Angelica:
Does it cross your mind to be slightly sorry
Do you even care that you might be wrong
Congratulations! I hope you had a blast
While you dragged her along...!

Voiceof Laurens:
And you say what you need to say
Pay all the debts you need to pay
And if somebody's in your way

Voice of Laurens/Angelica/Eliza:
Crush them and leave them behind!

Voice of Laurens/Angelica:
Well I guess if I'm not of use!
Go ahead, you can cut me loose!

Eliza:

Yeah, I'll let you go!
Is that good for you?
Would that be good for you?
You?

All I need is some time to think
My career was about to sink
Can't erase what I wrote in ink
Tell me, how can I change our story?
All the things that I can't take back
Jefferson, political attacks
Now the hurricane has come back
I gotta find a way to stop it!
Stop it!
Write my way out!)

Eliza/Angelica/voice of Laurens
So you got what you always wanted

For everyone getting mad at Heidi, keep in mind that right before this song, Evan just said that he'd rather be with another family after she just found out he's been lying and keeping a ton of secrets. Any parent would be hurt and reeling after that, especially if their child was all they had and they'd been working their ass off to provide and take care of them. Yes, Evan has every right to feel alone and abandoned. But he also never tried to talk to his mom about these feelings despite her trying to be supportive. Evan causes just as much pain to others as he feels throughout the show.

@calbear0697

3y↑50

For everyone defending Heidi, she had a fear driven approach to parenting, constantly trying to fix Evan(making Evan feel like he always falls short when he can’t meet her pretty high expectations constantly) where as the Murphys just treated him as a person, not a problem who needed to be fixed, so while Heidi isn’t a bad person, Evan had every right to say what he said and do what he did by preferring to stay with the murphys

@itsallgood.498

3y↑74

@CalBear06 Yes, defend the guy how is using the life of a off'd kid for his benefit, and is also trying to replace him aswell, go ahead.

@calbear0697

3y↑18

@Something Good. when did i ever defend evan, his behaviour was clearly shitty, but he wasn’t exactly in the wrong to not want to stay with his mother

@Tina.1

3y↑73

@CalBear06 But Evan never communicated his feelings to his mother. You could say she should’ve known, or it was hard for him, but those aren’t valid either. I completely understand this wouldn’t have have been easy, but even so. Ultimately, Heidi just wants the best for Evan, so if he blames her for something that could have been solved through communication, how is it specifically her fault?

I haven't watched the musical, and haven't finished the book yet. Is Alana that girl that...seemed like she's using Connor's death to get attention...? And was she the same girl that said she was also Connor's friend but Connor just didn't mention her? (I thought she was lying about that, but after reading your comment I'm not sure. Also she didn't even show up at the funeral, or at least when Evan was there). Or maybe I'm confusing a bunch of characters together?

Guess I'm rereading some parts from the beginning. And probably look for the script to the musical.

@colossians317studios5

5y↑344

@Kleithsune Tails25 Alana is also an outsider, probably with almost as much social anxiety as Evan, though since she's not the main character we don't often get to see under the mask of her typical "cheeriness." She never said she was Connor's friend, but she was his lab partner, and she felt bad when he died, because she knows what it's like to feel alone. She did show up at the memorial assembly, yes. I don't think she tried to use Connor's death to get attention, but part of her reason for joining the Connor project may have been for extra credit.
To summarize, Alana is an overachiever with a broken heart of gold, though a YouTube comment is hardly the place to make an intense psychoanalysis. I hope this helps.

As someone who has ADHD, anxiety, and was raised by a single mother, Heidi has a 100% reason to be mad/hurt. She's torn with the thought that she couldn't give more and that her own child wasnt happy with her. As well, she felt betrayed. Do remember her reaction when she finds out the truth....she doesn't care about the lies or anything but the horrifying thought of evan Hansen's true feelings in the letter and how she never realized how hurt and in pain he was. She came right to his side and was there.

@mattcat3333

I'm you without anxiety. Just clinically certified depression man

@neneunclassified1567

2y↑14

Don't get me wrong she hurt but at the same time she could have handled the situation a little better, she a good mom, it's just the constant pressure. Like imagine the second you get home and all you mother's questions is about you well being, nice right, until that's the only questions you can never have a nice conversation. You know she's doing it cause she loves ya but you also know she wants you to get better,you know she's constantly worried for you, she tired and you want to help by meeting her standards or expectations but you can't. So when you find a family that requires less that your mother did, you might lean to them a little.

But I see where your coming from it a very good argument! (Your comment was two years ago what am I doing?)

@havendidit

I know someone who was a single mum and has an adult son who basically blamed her for every single problem in his life. And yeah he had a lot of trauma and issues, and yeah his mother wasn't always perfect, but she tried so hard every day for him. She described that her world fell apart when she lost her kids' father, and then decades later it broke her heart when her son turned on her.
I know Heidi's a fictional character, but I can only imagine how heartbreaking her situation must have been. And a lot of people have talked about how she could have (should have?) done better in that moment. But that just makes it so much more real to me. Everything else fades in that moment and it's just raw, messy, complicated emotions that have overwhelmed her so much that she just explodes in an outburst of anger and more importantly pain. In that moment, she's not just Evan's mother anymore. She's just a person who has been deeply hurt: rejected and abandoned by the person she loved more than anyone else, who she effectively had dedicated her entire life to.
I know Evan's a kid and hurting too in this situation, it's messy and painful and complicated all round, but I have so much sympathy for Heidi. My heart absolutely goes out to her. And I feel like it really adds to her character, not only the emotions themselves but also how despite the pain and hurt, she steps up to support and love her son once she realises how much he's struggling. It's incredible.
Anyway that's a lot of rambling for me to just say that I don't like how many people are condemning Heidi in all these videos, as if Heidi as a mother is therefore not allowed to have her own emotions and struggles. Ramble ramble ramble et cetera.

@imsotiredofthiscrap2341

Oh I agree with you completely. By the end of the musical, Heidi has grown. She learns that the most she can do is be there for her child when he needs her. However, if Cynthia and Larry both really understood Evan, I feel like they would have treated him similar to Connor. In the novel, Connor talks about how he felt like Cynthia was trying to patch him up, fix him, make him different from the person he was, all so she could have a "normal son". Larry just ignored him. It wouldn't have been that extreme with Evan, they weren't his adoptive or genetic parents after all, (duh I don't even have to say that lol). But they would have treated him differently, if they didn't think he was this perfect human being.

@HouseMDaddict

4y↑51

I think it's sort of akin to a parent that had a kid born with a chronic illness (which hey mental health can be compared to that easily), who is constantly making sure their kid is taking their meds, being safe/careful, mainly because it's been their entire life. The Murphys are "new" and don't know the ongoing ins and outs of Evan and the extent of his family or mental health issues because they only see bits and pieces. So yes, they treat him "normally" because at the end of the day Evan doesn't live with them and they don't know the "truth". Since heidi really wasn't around due to work, she'd focus on the necessities versus just being present with Evan. I totally understand Evan's view that you described here though. Evan and heidi both had a lot of guilt and there were a lot of barriers between them that limited communication about resolving the issues.

Note: The plot actually says this entire song is in Evan's conscience (Connor's also on the stage in this part of the musical physically pushing Evan around and stuff too). Although they are mad at Evan, they're not that harsh. Evan's diddly dang anxiety is kicking in once again. Also, when all three of them sing together, it almost sounds like conflicting thoughts. Enjoy the pain I'm sharing with you. :D

They really shouldn't have removed this song from the film. It makes Evan look antagonistic which is the entire point. Removing the song from the film makes him look innocent. Instead of having Heidi yell at him and driving off. They should have used the song. It would've made for a much more memorable scene. If the aim was to make Evan look innocent then the film shouldn't have been made in the first place, because it completely misses the mark. The point of the musical is to make Evan the villain of the story. So refusing to address his mistakes and label him innocent almost makes it an entirely different story. So disappointed-

@explodingchicken2677

2y↑8

The writers never intended for Evan to be the antagonist, nor have him be seen as innocent. Their goal was to see how far they could take his character while still having the audience feel empathetic for him lol. He may be in the wrong, but we at least get to see why he did everything. This is beautifully done in the musical, and terribly done in the movie :/

This song kills me inside and yet I still see people getting mad at Heidi for being mad at Evan.

Then Evan suddenly has this other family to support him, and Heidi is probably pissed because Evan is reminding her of his dad. Honestly, if you listen to Heidi's parts she could be literally talking to Evan's father before he left.

@raheelabubakar3098

7y↑3.5K

for everyone who doesn't know the actual plot, it it a lot better when you know the context. So basically this song is about how when Heidi (evan's mom and first part) comes home from dinner with the Murphys (Connor's rich family who has been spending lots of time with Evan after Evan pretended that he was friends with their son who recently commited suicide and the Murphy's have fully accepted Evan but Evan hasn't told them the truth yet and Evan starts the Connor Project an organization meant to keep Connor's memory alive and the Murphy's were so happy that they said that they would use the money that they reserved for Connor's college fund for Evan (evan is poor) and thats what leads to here) Heidi is thinking why Evan would take money from them if she is his mother and they fight about how Evan's life has become suddenly amazing because of the Connor incident but it's all a lie and he should tell the truth. The second part, the male voice is jared( one of evan's sort of friends who knows its all a lie) says that Connor's death is the best thing to happen to Evan and that he is taking advantage of it. So both of them are saying "wow great your life is so amazing 'good for you' but what about us?" and thats what leads to the
stop it stop it just let me out! because evan is overwhelmed with guilt about the whole situation.

this part gives me goosebumps. Theres so much emotion, and this part is the main reason I was pissed when it wasn't in the movie.

I don't see nearly enough appreciation for Alana's parts in this song so here it is: While Heidi sounds like she's mocking Evan and Jared sounds betrayed, Alana just sounds so angry, so done wrong, and she's the only one who sounds like she''s actually trying to talk with Evan instead of just accusing him. And that high note she does at the end? Magnificent.

Also I love how she says "blast"and "dragged" and "along" and her harmonizing with Jared and with Heidi and at the end. Just. Just saying.

To be fair, in the show Heidi does try talking to Evan about what's going on just before this song, and it doesn't go well. At this point Heidi has basically given up

Jordan Doornbos thank you for sayin this! I agree! Alana is the most underrated character in this musical, and she is also my favorite. She is amazing and her part is so heartbreaking, especially when you listen to it with the spoken parts. Alana just deserves so much more.

Evan: "Can't erase what I wrote in ink"

Me:

Me: Whiteout?

The ink is still underneath. It doesn’t erase it, but rather, covers it. Even then, it’s obvious something was once there even if you used white out on paper that isn’t lined

For those of you that are confused about why Alana is mad at Evan, Evan left the Connor Project before he told the Murphys about the lies. He never told Alana so she thinks that he stopped caring about the project

One of my all-time favorite songs. Especially with that guitar in the beginning.
I understand Alana sooooo much in this scene. The whole idea of just being seen as a the "smart kid" on the outside and nothing else. Feeling invisible and like no one can really get to the real you on the inside. Anyone else?

@denaejoy7498

Music, Books, Movies, TV, & More me, I relate sooo much to only being seen as that Einstein smart-ass robot with no feelings. I know the feeling of being ignored and overlooked solely because of intelligence. I can relate to Alana on a whole other level and it makes me cry even more.

STOP IT, STOP IT :(

Evan may have played with everyone’s emotions, but the pain he feels comes from the same place in every individual’s heart.

This is my favourite song on the Dear Evan Hansen sound track, for so many reasons. To me, Heidi sounds like a heartbroken mother, who only has her son left. When said son is basically (in her mind) abounding her for a much richer and well off family, she can't stop herself. Then Alana's part; she doesn't sound angry at Evan for faking a friendship with her, but instead with a dead kid. She felt betrayed and dragged along, because she actually thought that Evan cared for Connor, and she probably saw it as him trying to get close with the Murphy's for faking such a thing. Then Jared, who was just starting to actually wants to be his friend, but instead Evan threw him aside for Zoe. He talks about being played, which Evan basically did. Also Evan's part, where the guilt is catching up to him, and he realizes his mistake. This song shows so much emotion, and I love it.

I can relate to this song my older brother left us for his girlfriend, and he lied to his girlfriend now wife's parents saying we kicked him out of the house. It's been three years. So yeah my brother left us for another family.

This song describes perfectly how I feel about my mother. She cheated on my dad multiple times and left us for my rapist and his dad. I know I probably shouldn't feel this way but I'm disgusted. She said I was lying and I was never raped. I never want to see her again. If you're going to treat your child like that you should have never had any.
