Better Story To Tell

(album: Mercy Bound - 2011)

Now have you heard how they're talking about us, baby?
The word on the street is we are through
I have to admit that it brings a tear when I hear

Your girls say I am crazy, my boys say you're cold
Don't let this be the only tale ever told

There's got to be a better story to tell
There's got to be something done
About this broken wishing well
Say a little prayer maybe we should try
To turn this bad news into good
There's got to be a better story to tell

Day after day we've been hanging on
Night after night you pull away
Sometimes I feel our love is gone
What went wrong?

I can't believe it's going this way
Hold onto me, I know we can change

There's got to be a better story to tell
There's got to be something done
About this broken wishing well
Say a little prayer maybe we should try
To turn this bad news into good
There's got to be a better story to tell

Oh, let's talk it out
Don't raise your voice, no need to shout
Oh, the kids are asleep
It's just you and me, oh

There's got to be a better story to tell
There's got to be something done
About this broken wishing well
Say a little prayer maybe we should try
To turn this bad news into good, yeah oh

There's got to be a better, a better story to tell
There's got to be a better, a better story to tell
