I Can Do Better
I let my hair down
You showed me all over town
But every flower you gave me
Has dropped its petals to the ground
And lately I pray
Don't let me love
What will not love me back
I think I'm done with that
Don't let me love
What will not love me back
I think I'm done with that
'Cause I waited for you to be what you can't be
I let you hold me, but you can't have me
I thought that you would be a shelter
But I can do better
Sweet sadness, my old friend
How good it was to sit with you again
But you have no heart to save me
And I've got so much more to live
So lately I pray
Don't let me love
What will not love me back
I think I'm done with that
Don't let me love
What will not love me back
I think I'm done with that
I waited for you to be what you can't be
I let you hold me, but you can't have me
I thought that you would be a shelter
But I can do better
I've got a love that loves me right
My lover makes me come alive
There's nothing like it
There's nothing like it
I've got a love that loves me right
My lover makes me come alive
There's nothing like it
There's nothing like it
'Cause I waited for you to be what you can't be
I let you hold me, but you can't have me
I thought that you would be a shelter
But I can do better
I thought that you would be a shelter
But I can do better
I can do better
You showed me all over town
But every flower you gave me
Has dropped its petals to the ground
And lately I pray
Don't let me love
What will not love me back
I think I'm done with that
Don't let me love
What will not love me back
I think I'm done with that
'Cause I waited for you to be what you can't be
I let you hold me, but you can't have me
I thought that you would be a shelter
But I can do better
Sweet sadness, my old friend
How good it was to sit with you again
But you have no heart to save me
And I've got so much more to live
So lately I pray
Don't let me love
What will not love me back
I think I'm done with that
Don't let me love
What will not love me back
I think I'm done with that
I waited for you to be what you can't be
I let you hold me, but you can't have me
I thought that you would be a shelter
But I can do better
I've got a love that loves me right
My lover makes me come alive
There's nothing like it
There's nothing like it
I've got a love that loves me right
My lover makes me come alive
There's nothing like it
There's nothing like it
'Cause I waited for you to be what you can't be
I let you hold me, but you can't have me
I thought that you would be a shelter
But I can do better
I thought that you would be a shelter
But I can do better
I can do better
