Better Me Lyrics - After The Flood - Clumsy Lovers

Better Me (Chris Jonat) 

Sometimes it's hard, it's not what we'd hoped 

We were prepared to climb but not at this slope 

Well I'm here to tell you I aint one to mope 

Or turn tail and go 

I'm taking the blame, what's your's and what's mine 

Sentenced myself and I'm doing the time 

I'm pleased to report so far I feel fine 

I think it's the first sign 

A better me you have just got to meet 

A better me so steadfast and sweet 

There'll be primping and preening and blessed redeeming 

And a better me is going to sweep you off your feet 

Well I'm angry as hell and I'm guilty as sin 

Don't like where I am and I hate where I've been 

So I'm getting reborn, I'm doing me in 

Tell my next of kin 

I've got peace like a river flowing through me 

I've got joy like a fountain bursting at my seams 

I've got love like an ocean washing me clean 

Brother what a scene, tell me have you seen 

Scrimping and saving and life rearranging 

Giving and taking and true amends making
