Better Off Alone (Acoustic)

You taught me how to love and taught me how to try Told me how we only could hope to be right Finding our way beneath a Tennessee sky Lie beneath the stars and looking for the signs We never seemed to worry beyond our eyes Something so simple could never stand in time You were never ready to take the name "Beautiful" I was never ready to go You were wasting time and I was so pitiful Maybe, baby, now we know We're better off alone Living like a dream that drifts through our sleep Falling all around us the reasons we keep Fighting our way to every kiss so sweet Running up the river to save my own soul Trying to make it back to the place of my home Every young lover exacts her very own toll
