Better This Way
I'm a strong man, I can lift heavy things
I do construction, in torn and tattered blue jeans
Drive a pick-up, drink beer eat buffalo wings
in the sports bar with all my macho buddies
I'm in control of my life and what people see.
Still I'm terrified, of what they would say
if they found out about you and me
That's the reason why you are not here in my arms
and the reason why I push you away
cause the fear inside is greater than my courage allows
Its always been better this way, always been better this way
I'm a good man, I'm always doing good deeds
I build houses, for people in need
All of my life, I've always needed to please
and it may just end any happiness out there for me
I can't believe, that right in front of me, is the only one I'll ever need
But I'm terrified, of the whispers and the gossip and the hate that I've seen
That's the reason why I can't seem to let go of my heart
and the reason why I push you away
nothings ever equal in this game that I play
when it means it's love I'm gonna betray
Now I know it's not better this way
Here you are, deep in my love where I find all the strength that I need
It's all because of you, now I'm stronger and I'm stronger,
I'm stronger with you
That's the reason why I 'm giving you all of my heart
I swear I'll never push you away
The only thing that matters is your here in my arms
Baby, it's better this way.
I do construction, in torn and tattered blue jeans
Drive a pick-up, drink beer eat buffalo wings
in the sports bar with all my macho buddies
I'm in control of my life and what people see.
Still I'm terrified, of what they would say
if they found out about you and me
That's the reason why you are not here in my arms
and the reason why I push you away
cause the fear inside is greater than my courage allows
Its always been better this way, always been better this way
I'm a good man, I'm always doing good deeds
I build houses, for people in need
All of my life, I've always needed to please
and it may just end any happiness out there for me
I can't believe, that right in front of me, is the only one I'll ever need
But I'm terrified, of the whispers and the gossip and the hate that I've seen
That's the reason why I can't seem to let go of my heart
and the reason why I push you away
nothings ever equal in this game that I play
when it means it's love I'm gonna betray
Now I know it's not better this way
Here you are, deep in my love where I find all the strength that I need
It's all because of you, now I'm stronger and I'm stronger,
I'm stronger with you
That's the reason why I 'm giving you all of my heart
I swear I'll never push you away
The only thing that matters is your here in my arms
Baby, it's better this way.
