Better By Now Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I finally got the nerve
To go out on the town
'Cause it's been a while, been all cooped up
And I ain't left this house
My friend said, "Don't you worry, man
We'll have us a hell of a time"
So, I got cleaned up and put on my hat
But much to my surprise

[Chorus]
You came slidin' 'cross that dance floor
With that yeah-you-missed-me grin
Acting like you're the one I'm here for
Ready to break my heart again
But stupid me, I walked on out
Pulled you close and spun you 'round
Took you home, woke up alone
Knowing damn well me and my heart should know bettеr by now
[Verse 2]
I still can't figure out
Just how you managed to
Be hеre on the same damn night as me
Flashing those baby blues
I swear it seems like you planned out
Each time I lose my mind
'Cause you strut through the room in those daisy dukes
Just like you did last night [Chorus]
When you came slidin' 'cross that dance floor
With that yeah-you-missed-me grin
Acting like you're the one I'm here for
Ready to break my heart again
But stupid me, I walked on out
Pulled you close and spun you 'round
Took you home, woke up alone
Knowing damn well me and my heart should know better by now

[Post-Chorus]
Better by now
Oh, I should know better by now

[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus]
You came slidin' 'cross that dance floor
With that yeah-you-missed-me grin
Acting like you're the one I'm here for
Ready to break my heart again
But stupid me, I walked on out
Pulled you close and spun you 'round
Took you home, woke up alone
Knowing damn well me and my heart should know better by now

[Outro]
Me and my heart should know better by now
Yeah, you'd think I'd know better by now
