Better Off Alone

One thing I'm wonderin' when you run out of friends Will you be coming back home? Let's think this through again, let's take a different spin Why can't I leave you alone? Somewhere tonight, you may be found With some other girl you've been draggin' around You lie to yourself, you lie to me It seems like the truth is your worst enemy 'Cause baby I'm tired, I'm tired of the fight I'm tired of the lonely days and the dark endless nights It's taken some time 'cause I didn't know if I could ever let you go You helped me figure it out, I'm better off alone Oh, I'm better off alone, yes, I am I may be found somewhere tonight Cursing the day you walked into my life But what's done is done, I can't change time But I'll be damned if I'm not gonna try, oh, I'm gonna try But baby I'm tired, I'm tired of the fight I'm tired of the lonely days and the dark endless nights It's taken some time 'cause I didn't know if I could ever let you go You helped me figure it out, I'm better off alone But every now and then my heart gives in To the hope that someday you'll change Then alone I'll wake to my own mistakes That it's just a foolish game I'm tired, I'm tired of the fight I'm tired of the lonely, lonely, lonely days and the dark endless nights You didn't think 'cause you didn't know That I'd find the strength to let, let you go I finally figured it out, oh, I'm better off alone Oh, I'm better off alone, yeah One thing before I go Something I've got to know Boy, did you ever love me? --- Better off Alone - Katharine McPhee
