Better Off Alone

by Dave Deal

I’m gonna leave you, babe
I’ve already made my plans
Your time is coming, girl
I’ve taken all I can

I am not fooling you this time
Don’t play with my affections
You’re cheating and you’re lying to me, child
Alone in your rejections

I’ve spoke to my heart 
And I’ve made up my mind

I’d rather be alone
I’m done wasting time trying for you
I’d rather be alone
So, I can go out and find someone new
I’m better off alone

The night time shadows, they hide
First light, they run away
And the days turn to weeks and then to years
But the memories still haunt me from so far away

I should have left you a long time ago
Then things wouldn’t be so hard
You promised me a life time of love
So, I let down my guard

But when it’s all said and done
And I’ve laid down my cards

I’d rather be alone
I’m done wasting time trying for you
I’d rather be alone
So, I can go out and find someone new
I’m better off alone
