We Were Happy

  • We used to walk along the streets
    When the porch lights were shinin' bright
    Before I had somewhere to be
    Back when we had all night
    And we were happy
    I do recall a good while back
    We snuck into the circus
    You threw your arms around my neck
    Back when I deserved it
    And we were happy

    When it was good, baby, it was good, baby
    We showed 'em all up
    No one could touch the way we laughed in the dark
    Talkin' 'bout your daddy's farm we were gonna buy someday
    And we were happy

    We used to watch the sun go down
    On the boats in the water
    That's sorta how I feel right now
    And goodbye's so much harder
    'Cause we were happy

    When it was good, baby, it was good, baby
    We showed 'em all up
    No one could touch the way we laughed in the dark
    Talkin' 'bout your daddy's farm we were gonna buy someday
    And we were happy
    We were happy

    Oh, I hate those voices
    Tellin' me I'm not in love anymore
    But they don't give me choices
    And that's what these tears are for
    'Cause we were happy
    We were happy

    When it was good, baby, it was good, baby
    We showed 'em all up
    No one could touch the way we laughed in the dark
    Talkin' 'bout your daddy's farm
    And you were gonna marry me
    And we were happy
    We were happy
    Oh
