Got a room full of laughter
Framed in my phone
But it fades
You were here on the couch last summer
Now it feels like I dreamed those days
I keep saving your coffee mugs
Like you might walk through that door
Talk to the air in the kitchen
Pretend you still hit my floor
Happiness
Why you run away?
Why you always slip right through my fingers?
Why can't you stay beside me
Stay?
Why do you burn out while the ache still lingers?
To happiness
Why you run away?
Why can't you stay beside me forever?
Every good thing leaves early
Like the last train
Like the last light
You said
"Nothing lasts for a lifetime"
I said
"Some things should at least try"
Now I'm counting the goodnight texts
That stopped coming
One by one
Talking big ‘bout moving on
Still stuck in what we were
Happiness
Why you run away?
Why you always slip right through my fingers?
Why can't you stay beside me
Stay?
Why do you burn out while the ache still lingers?
To happiness
Why you run away?
Why can't you stay beside me forever?
If I learn to hold you lightly
Would you rest here in my hands?
If I promise not to crush it
Could you give me one more chance?
Happiness
Why you run away?
Why you always slip right through my fingers?
Why can't you stay beside me
Stay?
Why do you burn out while the ache still lingers?
To happiness
Why you run away?
Why can't you stay beside me forever?
Why can't you stay beside me forever?
