Better Off Alone
If you want to there's the door
Can't imagine what you're waiting for
'Cause I know you ain't the kind to ever change your mind
And though
I taught you everything you know
I learned a thing or two myself and so I'm gonna miss you when you're gone but I'm better off alone
I
Can't say that I'm surprised
'Cause that leavin' look was in your eyes for some time now and I knew
I was losing you
You
Ain't never anything but blue
And now you say you found somebody new you can lay that burden on
Guess I'm better off alone
Say what you think you gotta say
Just don't tell me you changed your mind and you're gonna stay I can't tell you what I'd do then
'Cause I just cant go through that
Again
'Cause it almost killed me then and I guess I shoulda known that I'm better off alone
And it's clear the story's shown I'm better off alone
Can't imagine what you're waiting for
'Cause I know you ain't the kind to ever change your mind
And though
I taught you everything you know
I learned a thing or two myself and so I'm gonna miss you when you're gone but I'm better off alone
I
Can't say that I'm surprised
'Cause that leavin' look was in your eyes for some time now and I knew
I was losing you
You
Ain't never anything but blue
And now you say you found somebody new you can lay that burden on
Guess I'm better off alone
Say what you think you gotta say
Just don't tell me you changed your mind and you're gonna stay I can't tell you what I'd do then
'Cause I just cant go through that
Again
'Cause it almost killed me then and I guess I shoulda known that I'm better off alone
And it's clear the story's shown I'm better off alone
