Something Better - Live From Mount Street Studio
I don't dance
Oh I sing, but I don't dance
With open hands
With open hands
And I don't laugh
Oh I cry, but I don't laugh
And it's all I ask
It's all I ask
But I've got an aching head
And the sky isn't turning grey yet
Oh it's screaming a warning red
I should've said
That you caught me waiting for something better than this
You caught me waiting for something better than...
And I'm not scared
Oh I'm terrified, but I'm not scared
To hear you swear
'I'll breathe your air'
Oh and I don't know
I don't know if we should be alone
Oh am I safer on my own?
Or am I safer in the hold that I'm in 'til you're gone?
But you make me feel so brave
Without even trying my name
And there's some things I can't evade
I guess it's just one of those days
One of those days
You caught me waiting for something better than this
And you caught me wishing I didn't, but I know you did
With my closed eyes and closed mind
You came in and laid them to rest
And you caught me waiting for something better than this
Better than this
And I'm moving the stars tonight
To try to take the edge off the morning sunlight
But I can't seem to get this right
When you're out of sight, you're just too close, too close
To me
You caught me waiting for something better than this
And you caught me wishing I didn't, but I know you did
With my closed eyes and closed mind
You came in and laid them to rest
And you caught me waiting for something better than this
Better than this
Oh I sing, but I don't dance
With open hands
With open hands
And I don't laugh
Oh I cry, but I don't laugh
And it's all I ask
It's all I ask
But I've got an aching head
And the sky isn't turning grey yet
Oh it's screaming a warning red
I should've said
That you caught me waiting for something better than this
You caught me waiting for something better than...
And I'm not scared
Oh I'm terrified, but I'm not scared
To hear you swear
'I'll breathe your air'
Oh and I don't know
I don't know if we should be alone
Oh am I safer on my own?
Or am I safer in the hold that I'm in 'til you're gone?
But you make me feel so brave
Without even trying my name
And there's some things I can't evade
I guess it's just one of those days
One of those days
You caught me waiting for something better than this
And you caught me wishing I didn't, but I know you did
With my closed eyes and closed mind
You came in and laid them to rest
And you caught me waiting for something better than this
Better than this
And I'm moving the stars tonight
To try to take the edge off the morning sunlight
But I can't seem to get this right
When you're out of sight, you're just too close, too close
To me
You caught me waiting for something better than this
And you caught me wishing I didn't, but I know you did
With my closed eyes and closed mind
You came in and laid them to rest
And you caught me waiting for something better than this
Better than this
