Happy the Hard Way - Avenue Q

Tell me it's over
Tell me we finally made it through
The comfort in silence
Turns to panic once again

We're caught in a landslide
We're dirty, we're broken
Black and blue
The feeling is lost in every signal that we send

How could a love hurt this bad?
How could we lose all that we had?
Why do we follow through?
What keeps us hanging on?
We lived like a storm and let it ride
For all of the times we felt alive
But sometimes love just can't make you stay
When you're happy the hard way

Say what you can't say
Say it's the end, say anything
There's something to find
In all the places that you fear

Lost in a moment
When it's only me and you
There is no other place I'd rather be but here
And those are only times that make the world disappear


How could a love hurt this bad?
How could we lose all that we had?
Why do we follow through?
What keeps us hanging on?
We lived like a storm and let it ride
For all of the times we felt alive
But sometimes love just can't make you stay
When you're happy the hard way

Can't we see it's time to let go?
There's no saving this tomorrow
But it's just so hard to say goodbye

Tell me it's over
Tell me we finally made it through

How could a love hurt this bad?
How could we lose all that we had?
Why do we follow through?
What keeps us hanging on?
We lived like a storm and let it ride
For all of the times we felt alive
But sometimes love just can't make you stay
When you're happy the hard way, yeah
But sometimes love just can't make you stay
When you're happy the hard way
When you're happy the hard way
When you're happy the hard way
