Lyrics
You should have seen it coming
The signs were everywhere
Maybe you were in denial or you just didn't care
I've been standing in the shadow of the light we use to share
Now my heart is tired of reaching and I've grown cold
So cold
Never in my wildest dreams did I think I would feel this way
You were the greatest story I'd ever told
And I believed in the life we made
The love we gave through the laughter and the rain
But you took my love for granted and I've grown cold
Your "I'll do better next time" kisses
That brought me right back to you
Are frozen in the photographs of who I used to be
And time has washed away my sadness
Love has made me brand new
And I can finally say that I'm over you
I am better now without you
So much better now
There's nothing left to say
Got my life back, my swagger
So much better now
So I'll be on my way
Oh, mmm
I wish you peace and happiness
I harbor no regrets
And all the very best for you to hold
You see, I don't wanna live with the bitterness of angry ghosts
That haunt you form the past
I just need some love and shelter from this cold
Oh, those "I'll do better next time" kisses
That had me running right back to you
Are frozen in the photographs of who I used to be
And time has washed away my sadness
Love has made me brand new
And I can finally say that I'm over you, yeah
I am better now without you
So much better now
There's nothing left to say
Got my life back, my swagger
So much better now
So I'll be on my way
I am better now without you
So much better now
There's nothing left to say
Got my life back, my swagger
So much better now
So I'll be on my way
I'll be on my way
I'll be on my way with a smile on my face
Yeah, oh
Oh, oh, oh oh oh, oh oh oh, oh
Oh, oh oh oh, oh oh oh, oh
I, I gotta go, I gotta live
I gotta be me, yeah, oh, oh
Gotta go, gotta go now, ah, oh, oh
I am better now without you
So much better now
There's nothing left to say
Got my life back, my swagger
So much better now
So I'll be on my way, oh, oh
