Better Man

Another lonely Friday night at my local bar Where the memories are never far I know that sittin' here is just a waste of time I was a better man when you were mine So many times before I was about to call About a dial away and admit it all That it was out of guilt that I let you go But I just wanted you to know I still look at the pictures of us as one Before I fall asleep just before I'm gone Take my hand and look into my eyes I've found the courage to apologize And I just admit that I am tired of tryin' I was a better man when you were mine We can meet our demons down the road We better hurry up, 'cause we're growin' old Life is too short and we're runnin' out of time And I was a better man when you were mine I know that you are starin' at the same ol' stars You could be sitting in one of those passing cars I know I should get up and get in touch today And let you know what I need to say That I still catch myself with a smilin' face Every time I think about those days Take my hand and look into my eyes I've found the courage to apologize And I just admit that I am tired of tryin' I was a better man when you were mine We can meet our demons down the road We better hurry up, 'cause we're growin' old Life is too short and we're runnin' out of time And I was a better man when you were mine I never knew that a man could love so hard Until the moment I fell apart And though I see the road leading back to you There is nothing more that I can do Can I take your hand and look into your eyes? Find the courage to apologize And admit that I am tired of tryin' And tell you I'm a better man when you are mine We can meet our demons down the road We better hurry up, 'cause we're growin' old Life is too short and we're runnin' out of time I was a better man when you were mine And I was a better man when you were mine
