I pass it in the hallway, I stop and reminisce
Most times I keep on walking, can't believe we ended up like this
I wonder where you are, and
How the hell we got so far
From those two kids, that first kiss
Leaning up against a chain-link fence?
It's probably time to take it down
Don't need it reminding me now
That I was happy once
Wish that picture just stop doing what it always does
Wish that song wouldn't come on
When my heart's already halfway gone
Halfway down, this leaving road I'm on
Yeah, we were happy once
Who we were ain't who we are
We had a real good run
But that don't mean I need to be staying up all night
Making myself think twice
Just 'cause I was happy once
It was fun until it wasn't
Blink and you're twenty-something
Laying next to someone you don't recognize
And the bills are piling up, and
He hasn't kissed you in a month, but
Every now and then it's love
And that's what tears me up
'Cause I was happy once
Wish that picture just stop doing what it always does
Wish that song wouldn't come on
When my heart's already halfway gone
Halfway down this leaving road I'm on
Yeah, we were happy once
Who we were ain't who we are
We had a real good run
But that don't mean I need to be staying up all night
Making myself think twice
Just 'cause I was happy
It's clear to me, it's over, but that girl at twenty-one
She's always gonna love you 'cause
You made her happy once
Happy once
Yeah, I was happy once
Wish that pictured just stop doing what it always does
Wish that song wouldn't come on
When my heart's already halfway gone (my heart's already halfway gone)
Halfway down this leaving road I'm on
Yeah, we were happy once
Who we were ain't who we are
We had a real good run
But that don't mean I need to be staying up all night
Making myself think twice
Just 'cause I was happy once
Happy once
