Lyrics
Better Off Alone
You and me, we had a good thing going on
Or so I thought, ?til I found the truth
You had a way with me that wrapped me round your finger
Friends tried to tell me but all I heard was you
Chorus
?You?re better off on your own?
That?s what they?d say to me
?This guy for you is wrong?
Walk away be strong
?You?re better off on your own?
They?d say, ?He lies to you?
I wanted to prove them wrong
You proved them right
You tried to buy me with fine wines and jewellery
But you underestimated what I?m worth
My taste is gold and not gold plated
You?ve got no hold you?re overrated
You don?t measure up
No you don?t measure up babe
I?m better off on my own
Than listening to your fairytales
I?d probably always known
I?d probably always known
You got caught out at your lies
Why you acting so surprised
Don?t try to change my mind
You only get one try
And you blew your one
Chorus
Chorus 2
I?m better off on my own
Than have you drag me down with you
I don?t need no loser in my life
I?m doing fine, I?m doing fine, living life on my own
