Better Than I Am
I know that I was not the one
To let my feelings show
In any way that mattered
The moment I felt
She might mean something to me
I would just run away
I felt that love was for the fool
Would tarnish any jewel
Turn a diamond to simple coal
Because in all my life
I never met that someone to make me feel love
was right, alright
Chorus:
Now I'll do most anything for you
To bring your love
Back into my empty world
You're the only girl I'm thinking of
Though I'll never know why you left this way
I'll try to understand
'Cause the moment you wee in my life
Made me better than I am
Now I see how issues from the past
Can manfest themselves
In your feelings for others
My bitter heart would poison loving souls of those
Who tried to come too close
And then you came into my life
And filled me with the strength
To face the pain inside me
Now that I've given you
The best part of my heart
I see you have your issues too
Your issues too
Chorus
Better than I am
I'm better than I am
Though I'll never know why you left this way
I'll try to understand
'Cause the moment you were in my life
Made me better than I am
To let my feelings show
In any way that mattered
The moment I felt
She might mean something to me
I would just run away
I felt that love was for the fool
Would tarnish any jewel
Turn a diamond to simple coal
Because in all my life
I never met that someone to make me feel love
was right, alright
Chorus:
Now I'll do most anything for you
To bring your love
Back into my empty world
You're the only girl I'm thinking of
Though I'll never know why you left this way
I'll try to understand
'Cause the moment you wee in my life
Made me better than I am
Now I see how issues from the past
Can manfest themselves
In your feelings for others
My bitter heart would poison loving souls of those
Who tried to come too close
And then you came into my life
And filled me with the strength
To face the pain inside me
Now that I've given you
The best part of my heart
I see you have your issues too
Your issues too
Chorus
Better than I am
I'm better than I am
Though I'll never know why you left this way
I'll try to understand
'Cause the moment you were in my life
Made me better than I am
