Better Off Without Me

VERSE 1:

Didn’t say I’d stay forever.

And as I recall I never promised I’d do anything but love you.

If my leaving brings you sorrow just know that beyond tomorrow

I must live with only dreams of you.

CHORUS:

Please forget me I’m not good for you.

I’ve brought pain each step along the way.

As I walk out of your life there’s nothing left for me

But knowing that you’re better off without me.

VERSE 2:

I should have listened when they said that you would follow where I led.

But I couldn’t see where I was headin’.

I caused you heartache filled with pain.

Your world of sunshine I turned to rain.

Now I can’t stand to watch the tears you’re sheddin’

CHORUS:

Please forget me I’m not good for you.

I’ve brought pain each step along the way.

As I walk out of your life there’s nothing left for me

But knowing that you’re better off without me.

There’s just knowing that you’re better off without me.

There’s just knowing that you’re better off without me.
