Better This Way

I must confess it wasn’t my best

But baby, you know that I tried

I won’t lament the years that we spent

There’s no use in weeping and crying

We’ve run out of time I’ve made up my mind

Don’t try to beg me to stay

Leaving today hurts me to say

It’s better, it’s better this way

Better this way than keep saying sorry

Better this way than keep hanging on

Better this way then someday my darling

We’ll be okay, it’s better this way

We can’t pretend this isn’t the end

It ended a long time ago

Let’s raise a glass, toast to the past

And all of the joy that we’ve known

See you around it’s a small town

And you’ll be with somebody new

Politely we’ll smile knowing the while

Oh that baby, I’m still loving you

Better this way than keep saying sorry

Better this way than keep hanging on

Better this way and then someday my darling

We’ll both be okay, it’s better this way

We’ll be okay, it’s better this way

We’ll not regret ‘cause it’s better this way
