jonathan terrell - better for you lyrics
[verse 1]
i keep thumbing through the pages of the story of you
but i can’t find the chapters that we wrote
did you rip ’em from the binding, one night, when you were crying
let ’em blow like crumpled leaves right out the door
[verse 2]
was it all too much to gamble, the rose ain’t worth the bramble
the fairy tale ending don’t come true
i’m no storybook cowboy, just a weary trail plow boy
who don’t know how to love a girl like you
[chorus]
next time, i’ll be better for you
next time, gray skies turn blue
my love, i’ll understand if you’re through
next time, i’ll be better for you
[verse 3]
the ties that were tethered tore loose in stormy weather
were lost just like the letters that you wrote
empty pockets full of chances, empty arms and lonesome dances
a bouquet full of promises i broke
[verse 4]
so maybe not in this run, in this life or this love
forgiveness ain’t a road you wanna go
so i’ll see you in the next life with lightning bugs and b+tterflies
and build you that castle in a rose
[chorus]
next time, i’ll be better for you
next time, gray skies turn blue
my love, i’ll understand if you’re through
next time, i’ll be better for you
next time, i’ll be better for you
next time, gray skies turn blue
my love, i’ll understand if you’re through
next time, i’ll be better for you
[outro]
oh, my love, i’ll understand if you’re through
next time, i’ll be better for you
next time, i’ll be better for you
next time, i’ll be better for you
