It was hard to come home to see the closet half empty
An old linen jacket is all that you left me
Pictures are gone, just a nail on the wall
It's like you never lived here at all
I go out with our friends, people ask how I'm doing
Though my heart's not quite done, I try not to lose it
I run to the bathroom so they don't see me cry
The truth is that I'm not all right
I tried to write you a letter, say all the things I need to say
Thought I would feel a little better, but at the end of the day
My broken heart wants to hate you,
But all I keep coming back to
Is even though you really hurt me,
I just want you to be happy
And letting you go that's when I knew,
I must have really loved you
'Cause even if it don't involve me
I still want you to be happy
I can honestly say it was good 'till it wasn't
But I'd see you this weekend, I didn't see this coming
You're working through something, but you said that you'd try
So concerned that you'd hurt me, it hurt more that you lied
I kept a shirt and a sweater, this close to throwing them all away
Thought I would feel a little better, but at the end of the day
My broken heart wants to hate you,
But all I keep coming back to
Is even though you really hurt me,
I just want you to be happy
And letting you go that's when I knew,
I must have really loved you
'Cause even if it don't involve me
I still want you to be happy
I doubt he's anything like me
Talk and kill the memories
So don't forget we used to be so good
It's not with finding someone new
And he don't love you like I do
Please remember that for me if you could
My broken heart wants to hate you,
But all I keep coming back to
Is even though you really hurt me,
I just want you to be happy
And letting you go that's when I knew,
I must have really loved you
'Cause even if it don't involve me
I still want you to be happy
I still want you to be happy
I just want you to be happy
