The Better And The Worst

Oh, the right thing

Is the hard thing sometimes

When I'm lonely

And just trying to get through the night

No, I never wanted to leave you

Darlin', I know I need to

Oh, I said, "for better," I said, "for worse"

When I told you, "I do"

But you got the better of me, baby

And I got the worst of you

You didn't set out to hurt me

Or to let me down

So thoroughly

No, you never wanted to lose me

So why did you choose not to choose me?

Oh, you said, "for better," you said, "for worse"

When you told me, "I do"

And you got the better of me, baby

And I got the worst of you

And down to the letter, I meant every word

When I told you, "I do"

But you got the better of me, oh, baby

And I got the worst of you

Why did I get the worst of you?
