Lyrics The Mavericks – A Better Way
Text:
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
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
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
