Something better
Something better
You took what I had, I wanted it back
You pulled me apart, the knife hit its mark
Didn't wanna believe but started to see
What it was, what it was was love
It was love that broke me apart
Then put me back together, -gether
It was love that shot through the dark
And gave me something better, better
Oh, you gave me something better, better, ooh
Gave me something better, better
You gave me something better, better, ooh
You gave me something better, better
(Gave me something better)
Ooh
You made space, you took your place
So I could feel, so I could heal
All those days, yeah, it was hard
But you left freedom with the scars
It was love that broke me apart
Then put me back together, -gether
It was love that shot through the dark
And gave me something better, better
Oh, you gave me something better, better, ooh
Gave me something better, better
You gave me something better, better, ooh
You gave me something better, better
(Gave me something better)
You gave me comfort when I didn't think
I could feel it anymore
You gave me peace when I couldn't see
The ending of my storm
You let me out of the storm
It was love (that broke me apart) broke me apart
(Then put me back together, -gether) yes it did
Yeah, yeah
(It was love that shot through the dark) shot through the dark
(And gave me something better, better)
Oh, you gave me something better, better, ooh
Gave me something better, better
You gave me something better, better, ooh
You gave me something better, better
Oh, you gave me something better, better, ooh
Gave me something better, better
You gave me something better, better, ooh
You gave me something better, better
