Better (unplugged)

Lyrics for Better (unplugged)

Y'all better get your tissues We got back, it's not the same And I'm afraid to say it out loud Then you replied, "Could I have done something?" You've got some nerve asking me now Though I'm in love with it, I will amputate I care enough not to keep you around Is it rough for you? I can't bear the way You look at me when I let you down Tell me, is this how it goes when you let someone know That they gave it their best, but you still gotta roll? Remember, I told you we would be closer If we took some time further apart Didn't it make you better? Aren't we better now? I know it made me better Aren't we better now? Been six months, it's my birthday And it feels good to hear your voice We took a ride through the hills Replayed all of the reasons I made that choice We go around the bend only to reveal What we couldn't see before We're better off as friends, baby, you can't stay We both know we're not there anymore Tell me, is this how it goes when you let someone know That it's all for the best? We cut and we grow Remember, I told you we would be closer If we took some time further apart Aren't we better now? And I know it made me better (I know, I know) Aren't we better now? That we been around the club once or twice? Breaking up in the middle of the night, no right (no right) Yet somehow we fixed that (somehow we fixed that) That we're talking when we used to fight? Still bail me out when the money ain't right, oh no (oh no) And now we're riding to the- (oh no) All the things I wanna eat, baby Start your fight, I could've waited all day or night It could've been forever Told you that I needed time to wait There's a lot to think about while you wait (wait, wait, wait, wait) Tell me one more time Didn't I make you better? Oh, didn't I make you better? Oh, didn't I make you better? Didn't know, didn't know Didn't I make you better? Makes me wanna say Didn't it make you better? Aren't we better now? And I know it made me better Aren't we better now? No, no, no, no, no, no, no Thank you Um, that table over there, my dad is over there And I will say that he planted a very deliberate seed He planted the jazz seed, he knew what he was doing Um, I know my range of just the types of things that I can get on The types of things that I can do with music Has so much to do with this seed that was planted That just kind of didn't follow any particular rule Um, and I'm so grateful for that, Dad Thank you for that Thank you, guys, once more for coming out It's been such a pleasure This gon' be my last tune
