Lyrics Mat Kearney – Better Than I Used To Be (Acoustic)

We used to be kids in the backseat wastin’ time
Talkin’ bout’ high hopes and day dreams
Never thought love never thought life
Could take us far beyond what we believed

Better than I used to be

Mmm

I been chasin’ this dream
I’m so glad you understand
Climbing up a mountain, would it leave you hardly standing
Things don’t go just the way you planned it
But I never thought we’d have, so much to take for granted
You never know what you got till it’s gone
Guess I never know cause I know you’re my only one

We used to be kids in the backseat wastin’ time
Talkin’ bout’ high hopes and day dreams
Never thought love never thought life
Could take us far beyond what we believed
As long as I got your love next to me

Better than I used to be
Better than I used to be

It’s been a long day alone
And I can hardly stand it
My plane leaves tomorrow
But my heart has already landed
Things didn’t go, just the way I planned it
But I never thought we’d have, so much to take for granted

You never know what you got till it’s gone
Guess I never know cause I know you’re my only one
You’re only one

We used to be kids in the backseat wastin’ time
Talkin’ bout’ high hopes and day dreams
Never thought love never thought life
Could take us far beyond what we believed
As long as I got your love next to me

Better than I used to be, mmm
Better than I used to be

We used to be kids in the backseat wastin’ time
Talkin’ bout’ high hopes and day dreams
Never thought love never thought life
Could take us far beyond what we believed
As long as I got your love next to me

Better than I used to be
Better than I used to be, oh
Better than I used to be
Better than I used to be
