Things Can Only Get Better Lyrics
[Intro]
You can walk my path
You can wear my shoes
Learn to talk like me
And be an angel too
But maybe
You ain't never gonna feel this way
You ain't never gonna know me
But I know you
I’m singing it now
Things can only get better
Only get better
If we see it through
That means me, and I mean you too
So teach now that things can only get better
Only get, only get
Take it on from here you know
I know that things can only get better
[Verse 1]
I sometimes lose myself in me
I lose track of time
And I can't see the woods for the trees
You set them alight, burn the bridges as you've gone
I'm too weak to fight you
I’ve got my personal hell to deal with
Then you say
You can walk my path
You can wear my shoes
Learn to talk like me
And be an angel too
But maybe
You ain't never gonna feel this way
You ain't never gonna know me
But I know you
I’m singing it now
Things can only get better
Only get better
If we see it through
That means me, and I mean you too
So teach now that things can only get better
Only get, only get
Take it on from here you know
I know that things can only get better
[Verse 1]
I sometimes lose myself in me
I lose track of time
And I can't see the woods for the trees
You set them alight, burn the bridges as you've gone
I'm too weak to fight you
I’ve got my personal hell to deal with
Then you say
[Pre-Chorus]
Walk my path
Wear my shoes
Talk like that
I'll be an angel then
[Chorus]
Things can only get better
Can only get better
Now I found you
(Things can only get, can only get)
Come with me, we can sing it now
Things can only get better
Can only get better
Now I found you
And you, and you
[Verse 2]
You show me prejudice and greed
And you show me how
I must learn to deal with this disease
I look at things now
In a different light than I did before
And I found the cause
And I think that you could be my cure
So teach me to
Walk my path
Wear my shoes
Talk like that
I'll be an angel then
[Chorus]
Things can only get better
Can only get better
Now I found you
(Things can only get, can only get)
Come with me, we can sing it now
Things can only get better
Can only get better
Now I found you
And you, and you
[Verse 2]
You show me prejudice and greed
And you show me how
I must learn to deal with this disease
I look at things now
In a different light than I did before
And I found the cause
And I think that you could be my cure
So teach me to
[Pre-Chorus]
Walk your path
Wear your shoes
Talk like that
I'll be an angel and
[Chorus]
Things can only get better
Can only get better
Now I found you
(Things can only get, can only get)
Things can only get better
Can only get better
Now I found you
[Bridge]
(Things can only get, can only get)
(Things can only get, can only get)
(Things can only get)
(Things can only get), Things (can only get)
[Chorus & Outro]
Things can only get better
Can only get better
Now I found you
(Things can only get, can only get)
And you, and you, and you baby
(Things) can only get better
Can only get better
Now I found you
Walk your path
Wear your shoes
Talk like that
I'll be an angel and
[Chorus]
Things can only get better
Can only get better
Now I found you
(Things can only get, can only get)
Things can only get better
Can only get better
Now I found you
[Bridge]
(Things can only get, can only get)
(Things can only get, can only get)
(Things can only get)
(Things can only get), Things (can only get)
[Chorus & Outro]
Things can only get better
Can only get better
Now I found you
(Things can only get, can only get)
And you, and you, and you baby
(Things) can only get better
Can only get better
Now I found you
