We Were Happy Once

(album: Paper Plane - 2016)

We were happy, we were happy, we were happy once

Sometimes I play a game
To see if I still love you
Pretend we never met
And I know nothing of you

When looking at your face
Would I still see the promise
And would you still choose me?
Come on now let's be honest

It takes a dark and lonely sky
To see the brightest shining light
You can't deny

We were happy, we were happy, we were happy once
We were happy, we were happy, we were happy once
Not long ago, not long ago, not so long ago

Today I caught a glimpse
Of you around the corner
I saw something I'd forgotten
And I loved you more than ever

It takes a dark and hopeless night
To see the starlight in your eyes
I can't deny

We were happy, we were happy, we were happy once
We were happy, we were happy, we were happy once
Not long ago, not long ago, not so long ago...
