Lyrics

Since you been gone I've had time to myself Haven't even tried to find somebody else When you told me you were leavin' it almost came as good news It may sound funny but it's true I think I'm better off with the blues Now I must admit that I miss you sometimes Not a day goes by that you don't cross my mind But at the same time I think of all the hell you put me through Yeah, it's the lesser of two evils I think I'm better off with the blues I know some day I'll wake up and this blues will be gone I'll forget about you and how everything went wrong But if you hadda stayed I'd be dead in my tracks Now, I still love you, baby, but I don't want you back Tonight I'm gonna go down to the sad side of town Listen to 'em play the blues when the sun goes down And I know just what to say when someone asks about you I'll say, yeah, we had our good times But I think I'm better off with the blues Yeah, if I had to say, I say I'm better off with the blues
