Emmylou Harris - Better Off Without You lyrics

(marshall chapman/dennis walker/fontaine brown)

Room 16the 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

Yeahbetter 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

Yeahbetter off without you

Better off without you

Better off without you in my life

Ohgodhere 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

Yeahbetter off without you

Better off without you

Better off without you in my life
