Don’t Know Better ‘til You Do
Missed your calls on the phone
Let you listen to the dial tone
When I knew very well we were both alone
Skipped a holiday or two
I'd have booked a ticket if I only knew
That you had a few left in you
Well, I should have done better by you
I should have done better by you
I should have done better but you don't know better 'til you do
My mind goes blank at our last fight
Cried when the news broke that night
I was waiting on you to make things right
I admit that pride gets my tongue
But you and I are of the same blood
And you play that game better than I could
Well, I should have done better by you
I should have done better by you
I should have done better but you don't know better 'til you do
Leave the light on my love in case you find a way back home
Leave the light on my love in case you find a way back home
And I should have done better by you
I should have done better by you
I should have done better by you
But you don't know better 'til you do
(I just wanted to wish you a Happy New Year
And every happiness that you wished for
And your health
And I just want you to be happy in 2019)
(So that's all mama wants
Anyway, I'm sure you probably have plans with your friends
Or going out or maybe staying home
I don't know what you have going on)
(But anyway, I just wanted to wish a Happy New Year early
In case we don't get to talk
I love you
Bye)
