Better Than You Lyrics

At a table for two with a romantic view

He said, "There's something that you need to know.

I don't usually date, so if I hesitate

It's just that I'm taking it slow"

He said, "Darlin' I don't wanna hurt you."

As he gently reached out for her hand

She laughted as she picked up her menu

And said,"Mr., you don't understand."

 CHORUS

I've been loved, I've been left

I've been wronged by the best

I've had hopes that were shattered in two

I've heard promises spoken, I've had dreams left so broken

There was no chance they'd ever come true

It ain't easy to see by looking at me

But there's no hell I haven't walked through

If you're worried, that's fine

But this heart of mine's been broken

By better than you

When dinner was done she said, "I had fun."

As they walked to her door, he smiled

He said, "It's only ten, could I come in?

Maybe we could just talk for a while."

She said, "Honey, I know what you're after

And as much as I'd like you to stay

Nothin' good ever lasted

When it gets started that way."

 CHORUS

I've been loved, I've been left

I've been wronged by the best

I've had hopes that were shattered in two

I've heard promises spoken, Ive had dreams left so broken

There was no chance they'd ever come true

It ain't easy to see, but take it from me

There's no hell I haven't walked through

And I won't cross that line

'Cause this heart of mine's been broken

By better than you

No, I won't cross that line

"Cause this heart of mine's been broken

By better than you
