Vince Gill – Better Off lyrics
I know your eyes are burnin'
But try and hold it in
Don't let him see you cryin'
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
Tryin' to change his mind

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

So go on and get that suitcase
And help him pack it up
Girl, you ain't losing nothin'
You don't need his kind of love
Don't watch him as he's goin'
It'll break your heart again
And don't stand there waitin' with the door wide open
Hoping he'll walk back in

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

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

Yeah, if he's gonna go, let him go
If he wants to leave, let him leave
Oh, if he's gonna walk, he's gonna walk
He'll only leave you better off
Yeah, he'll only leave you
Better off (better off)
