What do you say when it's over I don't know if I should say anything at all One day we're rollin' in the clover Next thing you know we take the fall Still, I think about the years since I first met you And the way it might have been without you here And I don't know if words from me can still upset you But I've just gotta make this memory stand clear I know I'm leavin' here a better man For knowin' you this way Things I couldn't do before, now I think I can And I'm leavin here a better man I guess I always knew I couldn't hold you But I'd never be the one to set you free Just like some old nursery rhyme your mama told you You still believe in some old meant-to-be Still I'm leavin' here a better man For knowin' you this way Things I couldn't do before, now I think I can And I'm leavin' here a better man Yes I'm leavin' here a better man For knowin' you this way Things I couldn't do before, now I know I can And I'm leavin' here a better man Yes I'm leavin' here a better man
