Harris Emmylou Better Off Without You Album Brand New Dance 1990 lyrics

Room 16, the 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



Yeah, better 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



Yeah, better off without you

Better off without you

Better off without you in my life



Oh, God, here 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



Yeah, better off without you

Better off without you

Better off without you in my life
