Snow Patrol - You Could Be Happy Lyrics






You could be happy and I won't know
But you weren't happy the day I watched you go

And all the things that I wished I had not said
Are played in loops 'till it's madness in my head

Is it too late to remind you how we were
But not our last days of silence, screaming, blur

Most of what I remember makes me sure
I should have stopped you from walking out the door

You could be happy, I hope you are
You made me happier than I'd been by far

Somehow everything I own smells of you
And for the tiniest moment it's all not true

Do the things that you always wanted to
Without me there to hold you back, don't think, just do

More than anything I want to see you, girl
Take a glorious bite out of the whole world

    This song is painful for me it's the 1st song I heard on the radio after losing my son to adoption where he was pulled out of my arms crying now when I hear this I think of him 💔💔💔💔

  2. T.... F....

    It’s like watchin a car crash... or is that just the fuckin car crash I got goin on... 🤷‍♀️ xxx

  3. r.... k....

    Beautiful song

    I am totally over my ex from our break up 3 years ago, but WOW, this song really brings back those FEELINGS and memories..........

  8. F.... G....

    this is lame

  9. Z.... H....

    I imagine a long car ride through the night, the lantern reflecting on you and the dashboard.
    Lost in thoughts.

  10. V.... E....

    I'm in mourning, and I listen to this song and I feel such relief!! It´s absolutely touching...

  11. R.... M....

    Gavin and stacey fans anyone

  12. R.... D....

  13. A.... V....

  14. S.... B....

    A song for all the lost loves and exes out there.

  18. A.... D....

    My ex told me to listen this song to me. I’m crying because all this time later I’m finally listening to it. Appreciate what you have before you can’t appreciate it anymore. Give your special one a tight hug and let them know you care and you’ll never leave them. Right after you read this and the song ends make sure they know.

  19. J.... E....

    I listen to this song whenever I feel heartbroken. I truly do love this song, but I’ve been here a lot lately...

  20. W.... S....

    You could be happy,
    And I won't know.

  21. F.... ....

    17.09.19 u could be happy , and i wont know ...benim ugur bocegim :(

  22. B.... L....

    The best snow patrol song

  23. j.... ....

    Losing the love of my life... was the best thing that ever happened to me... I say this with hindsight, a decade after it happened. I grew up, stopped being selfish, and learned to be a better person. I listened to this song so much at the time it happened 10 years ago. I can reassure you that heart wrenching, heart break does heal, and sometimes you are better off for having lost something you took for granted.

  24. J.... D....

    Always hoping that you are happy ❤️

  25. y.... d....

    This is beautiful.....and really sad....you can feel the void within the memories....

  26. P.... J....

  27. G.... B....

    Memories are there but I will never duel on them onwards and upwards ,1 year later I met someone who makes this song feel like a memory

  28. B.... C....

    "Sometimes you win, sometimes you learn".

    It’s been two years since me and my ex parted ways and he gave me this song. I was so bitter about the whole thing because it had been 8 years of my life just suddenly come to the end.

    Only now do I understand this song and I wish we had left on better terms and I hope he is doing well.
