Better Off

He lived down the street in a broken down house

And a car up on blocks in the driveway

The moment we meet there was never a doubt

That we won't forget this Sunday

It starts with a smile and we walk a few miles

And it all leads to this - our first kiss



All my friends are saying

Girl what are you thinking

You're better off, you're better off without him.

Find yourself another

Girl, that boy is trouble

You're better off, you're better off

They can talk forever, they just don't know better.



We drive around town in a rusty old truck

Somehow it feels like we're flying

Don't wanna come down

But they make it so tough

Just everyone we know is trying

To push us apart putting doubt in our hearts

And they get what they want cause you're gone



All my friends are saying

Girl why are you crying

You're better off, you're better off without him.

Find yourself another

Girl, that boy is trouble

You're better off, you're better off

They can talk forever, they just don't know better.



You come to my door

In the pouring rain

We know what we don't have to say

You hand me a rose and a note that says

We don't have to do things their way



All my friends are saying

Girl what are you thinking

You're better off, you're better off without him.

Find yourself another

Girl, that boy is trouble

You're better off, you're better off

They can talk forever, they just don't know better.
