Keane Better Than This Lyrics

Better Than This Lyrics

Is this what you meant?

Is this

What you dreamed of?

When you
were making

Your plans

Shaking the dirt off?

Do you feel like
you

And I belong?

(Oh, ah, oh)

Just keep your eyes

On
the road

And nothing can go wrong



You can do so much

Better than this

You can do so much

Better than this



I've been checking my sums

Oh where did the time go?

Holding my
photograph 

up to the window

Through the paper

And refracted
sun

(Oh, ah, oh)

I can see all the things

I wish that I'd
done



You can hang your hopes

On the medicine

You can
put your faith

In the phone-in

You can tell yourself

You're
doing your best

You can do so much

Better than this



Get a grip on yourself

Get a grip on yourself

Could have been
something

But you're too late

And you weren't invited anyway



'Cause the photographs

Show the wrong man

'Cause there

Is no soap star

Holding your hand

You Don't See Yourself

In
the freeze frame

Must be someone else

Using your name



And everyone

Will be the same

And everyone will glow

And
everywhere

You'll see your name

In every shop window



It's better than this

You can do so much

Better than this

You can do so much

Better than this

You can do so much

Better than this
