Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Rather be a fool than to start with something new (Start with something new)
Crying hardly does it anymore
Can't drink away the pain anymore, oh
[Chorus]
Oh, I'd rather
I'd rather be a fool than believe in someone new
I'd rather be with you than the other half of someone who's
Not even half of you
Oh-oh
Yeah
Oh-oh-oh
[Verse 2]
Now I'm in this room
Wishing you would settle down or come around
I've been dancing to all the songs that you love, all alone
Lost in the dark, 'cause you stole the sun
Oh-oh-oh
[Bridge]
Oh, tears are forming
When I see your face in my phone, I can't erase the memory
Counting all the ways she ain't right for me
I'll take your mistakes over missing you always
Am I out of place?
I'm here when I'm supposed to leave
[Chorus]
Oh, I'm telling you
I'd rather be a fool than believe in someone new
I'd rather be with you than the other half of someone who's
Not even half of you
Oh-oh
Yeah
Oh-oh-oh
