You're My Better Half

(John Shanks - Keith Urban)



Car door slams, it's been a long day at work

I'm out on the freeway and I'm wondering if it's all worth

The price that I pay, sometimes it doesn't seem fair

I pull into the drive and you're standing there.



And you look at me

And (you) give me that come-here-baby smile

It's all gonna be alright

You take my hand

You pull me close

And you hold me tight.



Chorus:

It's the sweet love that you give to me

That makes me believe we can make it through anything

'Cause when it all comes down

And I'm feeling like I'll never last

(Well) I just lean on you 'cause baby

You're my better half.



They say behind every man is a good woman

But I think that's a lie

'Cause when it comes to you I'd rather have you by my side

You don't know how much I count on you to help me win

I've given everything I got and I just feel like giving in.



And you look at me

And (you) give me that come-here-baby smile

It's all gonna be alright

You take my hand

Yeah, you pull me close

And you hold me tight.



Chorus:

It's the sweet love that you give to me

That makes me believe we can make it through anything

'Cause when it all comes down

And I'm feeling like I'll never last

(Well) I just lean on you 'cause baby

You're my better half.

Ooh, yea, I need you to know



Well, you take my hand

Yeah, you pull me close and I understand.

It's the sweet love that you give to me

That makes me believe that we can make it through anything.



Oh baby, it's the sweet love that you give to me

That makes me believe we can make it through anything.

'Cause when it all comes down

And I'm feeling like I'll never last

I just lean on you 'cause baby

You're my better half.



Oh, oh baby, you're my better half.



Ooh, hey baby, you're my better half...
