A Better Love Next Time

(album: 5:01 Blues - 1989)

[Spoken:]
Got a call tonight
Saying we could still be friends
What a way to say goodbye
What a way to end
They say the darkest hour
Is just before dawn
So I'll just hold my head up
And try to sing my song

Better love next time
Just don't let me lose my mind
All I need's a real friend
To pick me up again
I gotta shake these memories
If there's another chance for me
I'll be looking for a sign
Won't someone help me find
A better love next time

I could sit around and hurt forever over you
But in my heart I know you're really gone
There must be a reason for the pain I'm going through
Telling me I'm not where I belong

Better love next time
Just don't let me lose my mind
All I need's a real friend
To pick me up again
I gotta shake these memories
If there's another chance for me
I'll be looking for a sign
Won't someone help me find
A better love next time

Just as soon as I am strong
I'll be moving on
To a better love next time
