lyrics

"Are you happy now?"
You're asking me
And I don't know what to say
Because
There's nothing on my books
[About happiness]

But all the songs
I'm listening
Are telling me
That I should be
Happy.
So why am I empty?

Were you happy back then?
When we kissed
under the moonlight
And now it's too late
It's too late for us

"Are you happy now?"
You are asking me
And I don't know what to say
Because
There's nothing on my books
[About happiness]

Are you happy now?
Are you happy now?
Are you listening?
Are you happy now?

And all the songs
I'm listening
are telling me
that I should be happy
So why can't I feel it?

I'm sorry I wasn't listening
I'm sorry I wasn't listening at all
