Frank Turner - Better Half lyrics

rate me

Oh my friend loneliness, where have you been?<br />

You left to the lure of the lover who left me alone<br />

But now you come crawling back, and I'll let you in<br />

And we'll slip back into grooves that we cut in ourselves long ago<br />

<br />

But there must be a better half, somewhere out there<br />

She lives a better life, a life that shares<br />

Shares with a better man<br />

The man who is there when she calls in the night<br />

Who says "Hey, it's alright"<br />

<br />

And oh my dear distance, I've met you before<br />

Longing for a lover who's lost on a far distant shore<br />

And oh my imperfections, are all that remain<br />

And the days when I'd love you and I'd leave you, and you'd wish that I would stay<br />

<br />

There must be a better half, somewhere out there<br />

She lives a better life, a life that shares<br />

Shares with a better man<br />

The man who is there when she calls in the night<br />

Who says "Hey, it's alright"<br />

<br />

I know what she looks like, her face and skin, her smell and the rest<br />

I know the feel of her soul, but God help me I just cannot find her address<br />

I've how I've tried but now all that's left<br />

Is my old friend distance and sweet loneliness<br />

<br />

There must be a better half, somewhere out there<br />

She lives a better life, a life that shares<br />

Shares with a better man<br />

The man who is there when she calls in the night<br />

Who says "Hey, it's alright"<br />

"Hey, it's alright"<br />

"Hey, it's alright"
