Better Man / Save It For Later [July 23, 2006] lyrics
by Victoria Williams
[Verse 1]
Waitin', watchin' the clock, it's four o' clock, it's got to stop
Tell him, take no more, she practices her speech
As he opens the door, she rolls over, pretends to sleep as he looks her over
[Chorus]
She lies and says she's in love with him
Can't find a better man
She dreams in color, she dreams in red
Can't find a better man
Can't find a better man
Can't find a better man
Oh
[Verse 2]
Talkin' to herself, there's no one else who needs to know
She tells herself, oh
Memories back when she was smooth and strong, and waiting for the world to come along
Swears she knew it, now she swears he's gone
And she swears he's cool
[Chorus]
She lies and says she's in love with him
Can't find a better man
She dreams in color, she dreams in red
Can't find a better man
She lies and says she still loves him
Can't find a better man
She dreams in color, she dreams in red
Can't find a better man
Can't find a better man
Can't find a better man
Can't find a better man
Yeah
[Bridge]
She loved him, yeah
She don't want to leave this way
She feeds him, yeah
That's why she'll be back again
Can't find a better man
Can't find a better man
Can't find a better man
Can't find a better man
Can't find a better man
[Outro]
Two dozen other dirty lovers
Must be a sucker for it
Don't need to cry my mother
Just let me come come to a decision on
Sooner or later you hit the deck you get found out
Save it for later don't run away and let me down
Sooner or later you hit the deck you get found out
Save it for later don't run away, don't run away and let me down
I know I've f*cked up
I know we've f*cked up
But please don't, don't leave me now
Don't leave me now, don't run away, don't run away, don't run away, don't run away, run away...runaway, runaway, runaway
Don't let me down
