Better Place

Broken and hopeless Barely getting by That's who I told myself I was that night Then an angel in blue jeans Pulled up a seat next to mine Ordered my drink Tequila no lime How'd we get from "how are you?" To kissing in a corner booth To my love and my best friend To being who you say I am Let me stay with you Stay with you all of my days And I'll be leaving this world In a better place I just wanna lay with you Lay with you That's all it takes And I'll be leaving this world In a better place A better place Ooh, ooh Got so used to lonely Had to drag myself out Told all my friends I'll only last an hour I saw a halo above you In the neon light That empty chair beside you Had to be a sign How'd we get from "how are you?" To kissing in a corner booth To I never want this night to end To putting this ring on my hand Let me stay with you Stay with you all of my days And I'll be leaving this world In a better place I just wanna lay with you Lay with you That's all it takes And I'll be leaving this world In a better place A better place Ooh, ooh Ooh (let me stay with you, stay with you) Ooh (I just wanna lay with you, lay with you) Ooh (let me stay with you, stay with you) Ooh (I just wanna lay with you, lay with you) Let me stay with you Stay with you all of my days And I'll be leaving this world In a better place, a better place --- Better Place - The Shires
