What happened to the roses
And the little phone calls
We made throughout the day?
And the silly little games we played

But somehow things have changed
How I miss the old
Got my feelings thrown
We're barely holdin' on

Why can't we, you and me be happy?
Why can't we just be so happy?
Why can't we just chill and be happy?
Why can't we just be so happy?

The arguments seems to win over lovin'
Used to be huggin', kissin' and rubbin'
Now everyday is something new, separating me and you
I thought that we could get through anything

Why can't we, you and me be happy?
Why can't we just be so happy?
Why can't we just chill and be happy?
Why can't we just be so happy?

Baby, let's start over again
And get back to being friends
And let's try harder this time
Whoa, baby tell me

Why can't we, you and me be happy?
Why can't we just be so happy?
Why can't we just chill and be happy?
Why can't we just be so happy?

Why can't we, you and me be happy?
Why can't we just be so happy?
Why can't we just chill and be happy?
Why can't we just be so happy?
