Lyrics Better Place - The Shires

Better Place

Broken and hopeless, barely getting by
That’s who I told myself I was that night
Then an angel in blue jeans pulled up a seat next to mine
Ordered my drink, tequila, no lime
How’d we get from «How are you?»
to kissing in a corner booth
To my love and my best friend, to being who you say I am?
Let me stay with you, stay with you all of my days
And I’ll be leaving this world in a better place
I just wanna lay with you, lay with you, that’s all it takes
And I’ll be leaving this world in a better place, a better place
Got so used to lonely, had to drag myself out
Told all my friends I’ll only last an hour
I saw a halo above you in the neon light
That empty chair beside you had to be a sign
How’d we get from «How are you?»
to kissing in a corner booth
To «I never want this night to end» to putting this ring on my hand?
Let me stay with you, stay with you all of my days
And I’ll be leaving this world in a better place
I just wanna lay with you, lay with you, that’s all it takes
And I’ll be leaving this world in a better place, a better place
Let me stay with you, stay with you all of my days
I’ll be leaving this world in a better place, a better place
