Better Off Without You   Album `brand New Dance` 1990 Lyrics

Room 16, the Palms Motel  

 Now I can rest behind that door  

 My life with you's become a living hell  

 Don't wanna live like that no more  

 And whatever it will take  

 I will do to make this final break  

  

 Yeah, better off without you  

 Better off without you  

 Better off without you in my life  

    

 So I'll unpack my bag  

 And kick off these old shoes  

 This room is a good as anyplace I've ever been  

 For lookin' at the truth  

 Now it's all so clear to me  

 What a blind man could plainly see  

  

 Yeah, better off without you  

 Better off without you  

 Better off without you in my life  

    

 Oh, God, here comes the tears  

 I'm gonna stay right here  

 I'll cry. I've cried before  

 But I won't go back no more  

  

 Looks like a change in the weather  

 I can hear it start to rain  

 I hope it's not too long this time  

 Before the sun comes out again  

 But if it rains forever  

 I will still be better off  

  

 Yeah, better off without you  

 Better off without you  

 Better off without you in my life
