Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴You said your favorite kinda weather is a rainy day
And it's raining in LA
You said let's drive I wanna take you to my favorite place
And it's not that far away

I know you're afraid of jumping in too fast
Because your heart is still healing
It'd be shame to waste the chemistry we have

So let's stay in the feeling and

Even if it doesn't work out
Even if doesn't make sense
And you never see me again
Can we just be happy now
Even if we burn this down
Even if we can't be friends
Cause you hate me in the end
Can we just be happy now

My heart is begging not to let my head get in the way
And I think you feel the same
Scared I might be falling for you way too fast
Because my heart is still healing
But how can I say no when you've been look at me like that
So let's not overthink it and

Even if it doesn't work out
Even if doesn't make sense
And you never see me again
Can we just be happy now
Even if we burn this down
Even if we can't be friends
Cause you hate me in the end
Can we just be happy now
And all that I know is here in this moment
Sun is still setting over the ocean
And you're still kissing me so
Can we just be happy
Here in this light the green in your eyes is all that I see
I'm right where I wanna be so
Can we just be happy now

Even if it doesn't work out
Even if doesn't make sense
Can we just be happy now
Even if we burn this down
And we can't be friends
Can we just be happy

Even if it doesn't work out
Even if doesn't make sense
And you never see me again
Can we just be happy now
Even if we burn this down
Even if we can't be friends
Cause you hate me in the end
Can we just be happy now
And all that I know is here in this moment
Sun is still setting over the ocean
And you're still kissing me so
Can we just be happy
Here in this light the green in your eyes is all that I see
I'm right where I wanna be so
Can we just be happy now

Can we just be happy now

Can we just be happy now


Overall Meaning

The song CWJBHN by Jake Scott is an introspective piece about two people who are hesitant to pursue a relationship due to their past pains and insecurities. They both acknowledge their fears of jumping in too fast and potentially getting hurt again, but they also feel a strong chemistry between them that they don't want to let go of. The lyrics "even if it doesn't work out, even if it doesn't make sense, can we just be happy now" reveal a desire to live in the present and not worry too much about the future or the consequences of their actions.


The song's chorus is a plea to simply be happy in the moment, despite the potential risks and uncertainties. The imagery of the sun setting over the ocean and the green in the other person's eyes create a sense of peace and contentment that the singer desperately wants to hold onto. The repetition of the line "can we just be happy now" reinforces the idea that happiness is fleeting and should be cherished when it is present.


Overall, CWJBHN is a poignant reminder to cherish the present and not let our fears hold us back from experiencing joy and connection with others.
