Everything's still pretty much the same 'round hereMy neighbors still shootin' all of next year's deerBoys still lose 'less they're playin' at homeBut I got better since you got gone
I'm still a few too many on a Friday nightI still try to step in when it ain't my fightI'm still me, don't get me wrongBut I got better since you got gone
Swear it was like, "I'll be damned"I'm finally back to bein' who I amWhen we were over, it was overnightLight came on, it all felt right, when it all went wrong
You turned me looseWasn't no tellin' who I'd turn intoBut it turns out, me and you together's why it took so long'Cause I got better since you got gone
For a little while there, you had me convincedThat my mama was the devil, now we're talkin' againMy friends, you hated, ain't said one wordBesides, "You got better since you lost her"
Swear it was like, "I'll be damned"I'm finally back to bein' who I amWhen we were over, it was overnightLight came on, it all felt right, when it all went wrong
You turned me looseWasn't no tellin' who I'd turn intoBut it turns out, me and you together's why it took so long'Cause I got better since you got gone
Oh, baby, since you got gone
And I ain't sayin' that you're the sleep that I lostBut I never slept this good beforeI ain't sayin' you're the weight on my backI'm just sayin' that it ain't there no more
I'll be damnedI'm finally back to bein' who I amWhen we were over, it was overnightLight came on, it all felt right, when it all went wrong
You turned me looseWasn't no tellin' who I'd turn intoBut it turns out me and you together's why it took so long'Cause I got better since you got gone
Yeah, baby, since you got gone
