Is the better part over?
|
Has a ragin' river turned into a stream?
|
Is the better part over?
|
Are we down to not quite sayin' what we mean?
|
|
And after thinkin' it over
|
Wouldn't you rather have the endin' nice and clean
|
Where love remains in all the closing scenes?
|
If the better part's over
|
|
Why hang around
|
For an endin' that's laden with sorrow?
|
We've both been around
|
We've both seen that movie before
|
|
And as much as I love you
|
I can't live while fearin' tomorrow
|
If the better part's over
|
Then why should we try anymore?
|
|
Is the better part over?
|
Has a ragin' river turned into a stream?
|
Is the better part over?
|
Are we down to not quite sayin' what we mean?
|
|
And after thinkin' it over
|
Wouldn't you rather have the endin' nice and clean
|
Where love remains in all the closing scenes
|
Is the better part over?
