Oh yeah, we can do better

I know it hurt bad, your Mom left your Dad

When you were a little girl

You think I'm gonna leave 'cause history repeats

We've seen it around the world

Oh, all that we're told get old

We'll cheat and we'll both get hurt

Against all the odds we'll pray to the gods

That this love works

When all we see is bad blood and mistakes

All we hear are sad songs 'bout heartbreaks

And no matter how long it takes

We're not gonna give up

We can do better

(ha)

Oh, we can do better

And nothing lasts forever

(ha)

We can do better

We can do better

Oh yeah, we can do better

Things can get rough, we might drink too much

And say things we shouldn't say

Forgive and forget 'fore we gon' to bed

And we gonna be okay

Some people pretend it's not gonna end

And end up then walk away

But that isn't me, I'm not gonna leave

I'm here to stay

When all we see is bad blood and mistakes

All we hear are sad songs 'bout heartbreaks

And no matter how long it takes

We're not gonna give up

We can do better

(ha)

we can do better

And nothing lasts forever

(ha)

We can do better

I'm not worried 'cause the thing is

We can do better

I know you and I are different

We can do better

I don't wanna overthink it

We can do better

I know you and I are different

We can do better

When all we see is bad blood and mistakes

All we hear are sad songs 'bout heartbreaks

And no matter how long it takes

We're not gonna give up

We can do better

(ha)

we can do better

And nothing lasts forever

(ha)

We can do better

We can do better...
