lyrics

My Better Half

My better half waits for me on the street
My better half waits for me in her sleep
My better half waits for me in a dream
Then my better half tells me what it means

My better half she don’t pray for me
My better half she still holy
My better half she gonna give me her share
But my better half better beware

She says my name even though it’s in vain
Oh you’re still my better half babe

My better half she’s always on time
My better half waits for me to decide
My better half knows where my heart is at
And my better half knows better than that

She’ll say you’re true even though she knows you
Haven’t been the better half

My better half she a teacher
My better half she a crazy woman
My better half is a central defender
And my better half better remember

I blew apart the life that we had
So I could get at the better half

I blew apart the life that we had
So I’d get the better half
