I used to live out loud
|
I used to run around wild and free, so free
|
I had nothing to tie me down
|
No, no, I'd come and go as I pleased
|
But baby you were something
|
I thought that I was missing
|
So I gave up the life of my own
|
And now a broken heart later
|
I'm sitting here wishing
|
That I'd left well enough alone
|
|
'Cause sometimes somethin'
|
Ain't always better than nothin'
|
'Cause when I had nothin'
|
I never felt so doggone blue
|
Yeah, let me tell you now
|
Somethin' ain't always better than nothin'
|
Oh, no, you know I'd rather have nothin'
|
Than somethin' like you
|
|
It's a sad situation
|
When you're losing more than you gain
|
Chalk it up to education, boy
|
One more time
|
And come on in out of the rain
|
No one really knows the answers
|
And so we take our chances
|
On this crazy thing called love
|
But thanks to you, when I'm facing
|
Any future romances
|
I'll know just when to turn and run
|
|
'Cause sometimes somethin'
|
Ain't always better than nothin'
|
'Cause when I had nothin'
|
I never felt so doggone blue
|
Yeah, let me tell you now
|
Somethin' ain't always better than nothin'
|
Oh, no, you know I'd rather have nothin', baby
|
Than somethin' like you
|
|
Yes, I would rather have nothin'
|
Than somethin' like you
|
