A Better Place - Silverstein

She said she never believed

In the idea of fate

No love at first site stories

I wasn’t her soul mate

When she collapsed (when she collapsed)

I thought she was joking

But she didn’t get up again

She didn’t get up again

A thousand flowers, a hundred cards to say

She’s in a better place, she’s in a better place

Just face it, just face it you can’t let go I can’t be spoken for anymore

Just face it, just face it you’re on your own

I gave up everything I know

It carries on, it never stops

How could I go on without?

How could I go on without?

Just face it, just face it you can’t let go You can’t let go She always said I was way too safe

And I never could have fun

I had to make some mistakes and get

Into trouble while I’m young

So we broke in (so we broke in)

To the old train station and danced away the night until

The cops chased us away

It breaks my heart to think she’s in a better place

Just face it, just face it you can’t let go I can’t be spoken for anymore

Just face it, just face it you’re on your own

I gave up everything I know

It carries on, it never stops

How could I go on without?

How could I go on without?

Just face it, just face it you can’t let go You can’t let go You can’t let go!

Just face it Just face it One day I took off my ring to see if The memory would start to fade

The time I spent away, I wasted all those days

She’s in a better place

She’s in a better place

Just face it, just face it you can’t let go I can’t be spoken for anymore

Just face it, just face it you’re on your own

I gave up everything I know

It carries on, it never stops

How could I go on without?

How could I go on without?

Just face it, just face it you can’t let go You can’t let go You can’t let… go!

Just face it Just face it If I could, I tried with you

If I could, I would!
