She took me and her mom
Down to the jewelry shop
Wanted a second opinion
Platinum or yellow gold?
There's that lump in my throat
I helped her make that decision


And I waited to cry 'til I got in my car
Oh, how can good news be so damn hard?
It's not that I'm not happy for everyone else
But when do I get to be happy for myself?


I'm wearing baby blue
She's looking at her groom
He looks at her like she's special
Wedding cake on her cheek
I'll give the grеatest speech
Smile while I'm throwing rosе petals


And I waited to cry 'til I got in my car
Oh, how can good news be so damn hard?
It's not that I'm not happy for everyone else
But when do I get to be happy for myself?



When do I find the guy who buys the ring
And says "I do" and really does the thing
And my mama cries 'cause she knows I'm good
And treats me like she always prayed he would
And the pictures stay on the walls forever
And I don't wonder if there's someone better
On someone's day, I ain't jealous as hell


No, it's not that I'm not happy everyone else
But when do I get to be happy for myself?
