Verse 1
What do you say when it's over?
Don't know if I should say anything at all
One day we're rollin' in the clover
Next thing you know we take the fall
Verse 2
Still I think about the years since I first met you
And the way it might have been w/out you here
I don't know if words from me can still upset you
But I've got to make this memory stand clear
Chorus
I know I'm leav-in' here a better man
For know-in' you this way
Things I couldn't do before now I think I can
And I'm leav-in' here a better man
Verse 3
Guess I always knew I couldn't hold you
But I'd never be the one to set you free
Just like some old nursery rhyme your mama told you
You still believe in some old meant-to-be's
