A Better Way

We spent the night in a hobo town Like a pair of runaways We lit a fire and sang the songs We learned from yesterday Settled down and built a house With our own sweatin' hands What happened next I'll never know Or never understand Finished with my working day And headed straight for home I looked inside the bedroom door And you were not alone Well I hope you find a better way To get through my front door The roads you take don't let you see I don't love you anymore And if you find a broken heart Somewhere along the way Don't you dare pick it up I'll mend itself someday You thought my life was over now Well honey you thought wrong I found myself someone to love Who'll love me all night long All the things you left behind I threw them all away You never cared enough about The things I had to say Well I hope you find a better way To get through my front door The roads you take don't let you see I don't love you anymore And if you find a broken heart Somewhere along the way Don't you dare pick it up I'll mend itself someday Well I hope you find a better way To get through my front door The roads you take don't let you see I don't love you anymore And if you find a broken heart Somewhere along the way Don't you dare pick it up I'll mend itself someday --- A Better Way - The Mavericks
