THE GRASCALS
"I Know Better"
(Billy Droze / Christopher J. Myers)

Well, I sit here all alone at night
While the cold rain is falling
But I should be getting over you instead
If you're thinking of the reason
For the reason I ain't calling
Then you better thinking about the things that you've said
Too much stormy weather
Makes me want to call you up and talk about forever
But I know better

[Chorus:]
You're a lesson, learn a [?]
And I don't plan on reading it again
'Cause we've paid the cost of loving lost
And I don't want to go back where I've been
Where I've been isn't [?] that you've left
No forgive and forget
Just let go and get back together
'Cause I know better

Well, I can see a ray of hope
Just over my blue shoulder
You can bet it ain't you standing there
Oh, I'm tired of pretending
[?] gets me nowhere
I was crazy thinking that you ever cared
That's why I'll never
Put my [?] we had back when we were together
'Cause I know better

[Chorus:]
You're a lesson, learn a [?]
And I don't plan on reading it again
'Cause we've paid the cost of loving lost
And I don't want to go back where I've been
Where I've been isn't [?] that you've left
No forgive and forget
Just let go and get back together
'Cause I know better

[Chorus:]
You're a lesson, learn a [?]
And I don't plan on reading it again
'Cause we've paid the cost of loving lost
And I don't want to go back where I've been
Where I've been isn't [?] that you've left
No forgive and forget
Just let go and get back together
'Cause I know better
'Cause I know better
