Better Before

Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh

So could you write me a lullaby
Or even just a little verse
And I'll forget you hurt me first
Yeah, between the nights
Where I be crying over traumatized
I wonder if you lose sleep too
But then you wake me up with
How are you, you hold me
Lightly by your fingertips
Try pulling closer but we never fit
Yes, bits of my heart
Been catching up from the start

Cause on my Friday nights
I wasted on you
Abiding my time, ignoring the truth, yeah
You wanna lay every single day
It's all a bar
Gotta give me back my weekend life
From far back ago
Just a sentence away from letting you go
Got us estranged in the moment
Hopeless, romantic galore
Maybe we were better, better before
Maybe we were better before
So do you know
What's inside my soul
I tell you music, love and wine
And you respond to me with just a sigh
It's not your fault
I don't understand your politics
The way that you do
Felt pressure to pick a side
But instead I chose you
Yeah, I chose you

Cause on my Friday nights
I wasted on you
Abiding my time
Ignoring the truth, yeah
You wanna lay every single day
It's all a bar
Gotta give me back my weekend life
From far back ago
Just a sentence away from letting you go
Got us estranged in the moment
Hopeless, romantic galore
Maybe we were better, better before
Oh, maybe we would better before, fore
Oh, I felt warmer when you were far away
And baby, it's such a shame
We let these little things get in the way
Hey, maybe it's just that me and you
Were better when neither of us knew
Now on my Friday nights, I'm wasting on you
Abiding my time, ignoring the truth
You wanna lay every single day, it's all a bore
Gotta get me back my weekend life
From far back to go, just a sentence away from letting you go
God, it's a strange in the moment, hopeless romantic allure
Maybe we would better, better before
Hey, maybe we were better before
Hey, maybe we were better before
