"Better Off" lyrics - SARA EVANS

SARA EVANS
"Better Off"
(Marla Cannon-Goodman / Karyn Rochelle)

[Verse 1: Sara Evans]
I know your eyes are burning
But try and hold it in
Don't let him see you crying
Don't give that much to him
Don't tell him that you love him
Or that you're sorry one more time
Or get on your knees, beg and plead
Trying to change his mind

[Chorus: Sara Evans]
If he's gonna go, let him go
If he wants to leave, let him leave
If he's gonna walk, he's gonna walk
He'll only leave you better off

[Verse 2: Sara Evans]
So go on and get that suitcase
And help him pack it up
Girl, you ain't losing nothing
You don't need his kind of love
Don't watch him as he's going
It'll break your heart again
And don't stand there waiting
With the door wide open
Hoping he'll walk back in

[Chorus: Sara Evans]
If he's gonna go, let him go
If he wants to leave, let him leave
If he's gonna walk, he's gonna walk
He'll only leave you better off

[Bridge: Sara Evans]
You're gonna find someone who'll love you like he should have
And when you finally feel the difference you'll be so glad
You gave yourself the chance to move on
You'll wonder why it took you so long
And why you wasted so much time on him

[Chorus: Sara Evans]
If he's gonna go, let him go
If he wants to leave, let him leave
If he's gonna walk, he's gonna walk
He'll only leave you better off
