My girl came home to me just the other day acting okay
I was reading alone in my favourite room the TV was on
May I be excused for not telling the truth?
'Cos she's gone she said she's better off on her own
she turned her head much better off one her own
My girl knocked on the door to the place
I usually refer to as home
I died surely some tide should have dimmed
my eyes small and surprised
And God closed every gate the moon fell into the lake
Boy she's gone she's better off on her own
She closed and she left much better off on her own
Sitting naked by the window sill
Watching cars upon the hill
Am I sleeping?
I was dreaming for just a moment time stood still
Hey
Better off on her own
Better off on her own
Now
She's gone (better off on her own)
She said (she's better off on her own)
She's better off on her own
She turned (better off on her own)
Her head (she's better off on her own)
Much better off on her own
She's gone (better off on her own)
She sighed (she's better off on her own)
She's better off on her own
The tears (better off on her own)
I cried (she's better off on her own)
Much better off on her own
My girl came home to me just the other day
