Song lyrics
You could be happy and I won't know 
But you weren't happy the day I watched you go 
And all the things that I wish I had not said 
Are played in loops til it's madness in my head 

Is it too late to remind you how we were 
And not our last days of silent screaming blur 
Most of what I remember makes me sure 
I should've stopped you from walking out the door 

You could be happy I hope you are 
You made me happier than I'd been by far 
Somehow everything I own smells of you 
And for the tiniest moment it's all not true 

Do the things that you always wanted to 
Without me there to hold you back don't think just do 
More than anything I want to see you girl 
Take a glorious bite out of the whole world

what a song!!!!!!!!
one of the best on the album and one of the best they have ever made!!!!

You could be happy I hope you are
You made me happier than I'd been by far
Somehow everything I own smells of you
And for the tiniest moment it's all not true

I like Snow Patrol, but this is my least favorite on the album. I don't like how it sounds like a wind-up music box.

I love this song!! Everything about it! Can relate to it about certain stuff. I think most of snow patrols songs are so easy to relate to and thats why people like them so much. Like in this song you want the person you love to be happy even if it's not with you but at the same time its a crappy feelin knowin that you couldn't give them what they wanted to make them happy
anyways i love snow patrol their great

This song makes me want to cry everytime I listen to it. And I actually like the music box melody at the beginning....it's unique.

^^^It's not a wind-up music box sound. It's called a vibraphone. I'm glad they're using REAL instruments.

You don't like the "wind-up music box" sound? That's one of the best parts of the song. It shows their influence from Sufjan Stevens, who is incredible in every sense of the word. I think this song is excellent, and Snow Patrol isn't even one of my favorite bands.

One of my favourite Snow Patrol songs, and perhaps one of my favourite songs in general; it's so beautiful and the lyrics are so meaningful - they mean a lot to me and remind me of someone.
Such a great song .
