Phil Joel Better Than I Found It Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Turns out you're not the only one
Who cares about what's goin' on 'round here
So when ideas circulate, and man, it's all goin' down
So why should we care if we're not gonna be here?

[Chorus]
When it's time to leave this place
I wanna leave it better than I found it, yeah
Wanna leave it better than I found it
When it's time to fly away
I wanna leave it better than I found it, yeah
Wanna leave it better than I found it, yeah

[Post-Chorus]
Woah, oh, oh
No-no, no-no

[Verse 2]
Kеpt in suspense, makin' sensе
Of all the cynical reactions everywhere, I know you care, but
You gotta wonder why we hold our cards so tight
When there's a fire in the air, let's all take a breath here [Chorus]
When it's time to leave this place
I wanna leave it better than I found it, yeah
Wanna leave it better than I found it
When it's time to fly away
I wanna leave it better than I found it, yeah
Wanna leave it better than I found it, yeah

[Post-Chorus]
Woah, oh, oh
No-no, no-no, no-no, no-no, no-no, yeah

[Chorus]
When it's time to leave this place
Oh, I wanna leave it better than I found it, yeah
Wanna leave it better than I found it

[Outro]
Turns out you're not the only one
Who cares about what's goin' on 'round here
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
