Better This Way 歌词

I'm a strong man, I can lift heavy things I do construction, in torn and tattered blue jeans Drive a pick-up, drink beer eat buffalo wings In the sports bar with all my macho buddies I'm in control of my life and what people see Still I'm terrified, of what they would say If they found out about you and me That's the reason why you are not here in my arms And the reason why I push you away Cause the fear inside is greater than my courage allows Its always been better this way, always been better this way I'm a good man, I'm always doing good deeds I build houses, for people in need All of my life, I've always needed to please And it may just end any happiness out there for me I can't believe, that right in front of me Is the only one I'll ever need But I'm terrified, of the whispers And the gossip and the hate that I've seen That's the reason why I can't seem to let go of my heart And the reason why I push you away Nothings ever equal in this game that I play When it means it's love I'm gonna betray Now I know it's not better this way Here you are, deep in my love Where I find all the strength that I need It's all because of you, now I'm stronger and I'm stronger I'm stronger with you That's the reason why I 'm giving you all of my heart I swear I'll never push you away The only thing that matters is your here in my arms Baby, it's better this way
