Better This Way

Remember when you called me late in the day
You said to come over you needed me there
I left without question i dropped all commitments
I came to you and took you in my arms

You said i looked lovely, I asked why are you crying
You said you were hurting, You swore you were trying
I looked in your eyes, I saw all of your pain
God, I wish i could was it away

We wanted a cottage, in a field filled with flowers
We'd watch the clouds go by
And I'd do the dishes, and I'd watch you grow
Until one day, you'r? ready to go
I'd wait by your side
Help you with your struggl?s
I'd win the race if it meant jumping over hurdles
I'll hold onto high hopes until my fingers bleed
But you know how to run, Oh you know how to run
Yes you know how to run

So run to me baby, I'm waiting right here with open arms and open ears
I'll hear what's been hurting and ask you to stay
You would leave me and say "It's better this way"
You'd leave and say "its better this way"
But i dont think its better this way
I dont think its better this way
