Better By Far
Long John Baldry
Better by far
To turn and go away with him
And stay with him
And let him know the things
I can never know
The way things are
Yes it's, better by far
To tell myself it's been worthwhile
And try to smile
And let me turn the key
And lock away, this aching heart
Better by far
To turn and say
Let's end this way
With no regrets
Better by far
To end it now
Pretend somehow
We never met
While things are the way they are
It's better by far
Try as I may
To make believe my heart was wrong
The flame burns on
Then while we say goodbye
I'll hold my head up high
Just till you're gone
Better by far
To turn and say
Let's end this way
With no regrets
Better by far
To end it now
Pretend somehow
We never met
While things are the way they are
It's better by far
