Better Off On Her Own

My girl came home to me

Just the other day acting okay

I was reading alone

In my favourite room the TV was on



May I be excused

For not telling the truth



Cause she's gone

She said she's better off on her own

She turned her head

Much better off on her own



My girl knocked on the door

To the place I usually refer to as home

I died surely some tied

She looked in my eyes

Small and surprised



And God closed every gates

The moon fell into the lake



Boy she's gone, adrift

She's better off on her own

She closed, then she left

Much better off on her own



Sitting naked by the window sill

Watching cars upon the hill

Am I sleeping? I was dreaming

For just a moment time stood still



Better off on her own

Better off on her own



Now she's gone, she said

She's better off on her own

She turned her head

Much better off on her own



She's gone, she sighed

She's better off on her own

The tears I cry

Much better off on her own



My girl came home to me

Just the other day
