I Thought I Was Happy

V6

[Verse 1] I had my coffee, had my keys, had a plan for the day Same little route, same tired jokes, same bills to pay I called it peace when nothing moved, called it good enough Then you walked in with that crooked grin and changed the shape of us You asked me what I wanted, I had nothing to say I was good at keeping every tender thing away Now your name sits easy in the middle of my thoughts Like a room I never knew I needed, waiting with the door unlocked [Pre-Chorus] I was wearing out the word content Till you showed me what it meant [Chorus] I thought I was happy, then I met you Thought I knew the sky, then your blue broke through All of my almosts turned into something true I thought I was happy, then I met you Now the small things feel brand new A hand on my shoulder, a laugh in the room I thought I was happy, then I met you [Verse 2] You leave your silver rings beside the kitchen sink Steal the covers in your sleep, then ask me what I think We miss the train, split one dessert, take the long way home And somehow every ordinary road feels better when we roam I used to keep my good news folded in a drawer Now I call you from the hallway just to tell you something more Not because the world got softer, not because the hard days end You just made a little room inside me where I let somebody in [Pre-Chorus] I was wearing out the word content Till you showed me what it meant [Chorus] I thought I was happy, then I met you Thought I knew the sky, then your blue broke through All of my almosts turned into something true I thought I was happy, then I met you Now the small things feel brand new A hand on my shoulder, a laugh in the room I thought I was happy, then I met you [Bridge] If tomorrow brings a heavy rain I won’t need to stand alone again Keep your hand right here in mine Let the world be loud outside [Final Chorus] I thought I was happy, then I met you Now I see the life I never knew Every quiet corner has a better view I thought I was happy, then I met you And I’m still becoming someone new With your jacket on my chair and your coffee coming through I thought I was happy, then I met you [Outro] I thought I was happy Then I met you
