Happy For You Lyrics – Dua Lipa

[Verse 1]
Late on a Tuesday, I saw your picture
You were so happy, I could just tell
She’s really pretty, I think she’s a model
Baby, together you look hot as hell

[Pre-Chorus]
And I didn’t even want to cry (Oh, what is this feeling?)
Couldn’t believe it, had to ask myself why

[Chorus]
I must’ve loved you more than I ever knew
(Didn’t know I could ever feel)
‘Cause I’m happy for you
(Now I know everything was real)
I’m not mad, I’m not hurt
You got everything you deserve
I must’ve loved you more than I ever knew
I’m happy for you

[Verse 2]
And looking back now, I hope you see it
Even the hard parts were all for the best
I see where you’re at now, you picked up the pieces
And then you gave them to somebody else

[Pre-Chorus]
And I didn’t even want to cry (Oh, what is this feeling?)
Couldn’t believe it, had to ask myself why

[Chorus]
I must’ve loved you more than I ever knew
(Didn’t know I could ever feel)
‘Cause I’m happy for you
(Now I know everything was real)
I’m not mad, I’m not hurt
You got everything you deserve
I must’ve loved you more than I ever knew
I’m happy for you
[Bridge]
You, you, you (I’m happy for you)
You, you, you (Hope you’re happy too)

[Chorus]
Oh, I must’ve loved you more than I ever knew (Ooh)
Didn’t know I could ever feel
‘Cause I’m happy for you
Now I know everything was real
I’m not mad, I’m not hurt (I’m not mad, I’m not hurt)
You got everything you deserve
Oh, I must’ve loved you more than I ever knew (Ooh)
I’m happy for you

[Outro]
(I’m happy for you)
