[00:00.00]My Better Half - Steven Cooper
[00:07.02]Lyrics by:Steven Cooper
[00:14.04]Composed by:Steven D Cooper
[00:21.06]I first met you in my darker days
[00:23.58]Long nights in a drunken haze
[00:26.14]Those nights seemed to fade away
[00:28.20]Replaced by something so much better than my younger ways
[00:31.34]Hunger games
[00:31.99]Pursuing you like an addict
[00:33.46]Without you in my life
[00:34.64]My life is just static
[00:36.57]Just noise
[00:37.19]Scratched out
[00:37.65]And just void
[00:38.47]Found out
[00:38.89]It's a mountain you have to climb
[00:40.20]Forget toys
[00:41.01]I ain't playing no more
[00:42.31]'Cause I've grown into a man
[00:43.65]And I'm filling my heart with all the love I can stand
[00:46.37]And I don't give a d**n who knows or understands
[00:48.78]These plans we made together
[00:50.10]These three tightened strands
[00:51.66]Let us both hold on tight through the fight
[00:53.97]Thanking god every night for the girl in my life
[00:57.14]And for that we'll both be alright
[00:59.08]Yeah yeah
[01:00.19]We'll both be alright
[01:02.18]I know she's with me through the good and the bad
[01:04.77]And she don't care about the goods that we have
[01:07.49]Yeah
[01:08.31]She will outlast
[01:09.55]When all things pass
[01:11.08]She's my better half
[01:12.52]I know she's with me on these long lonely nights
[01:15.23]Through the calm
[01:15.90]Through the storms
[01:16.55]And the fights
[01:17.83]Yeah
[01:18.56]She will outlast
[01:19.82]When all things pass
[01:21.33]She's my better half
[01:24.83]Someone who knows I'm not perfect
[01:26.53]Still calls me a winner
[01:27.50]Just an average man trying to provide the next dinner
[01:30.09]Trying to take care of her needs but she deserves better
[01:32.66]What she sees in a guy like me
[01:34.45]I'll never get her
[01:35.36]But whatever
[01:35.99]She makes me feel respected and blessed
[01:37.87]I confess
[01:38.43]She's the girl that put an x to the rest
[01:40.54]The rest don't contest
[01:41.69]She's the top
[01:42.31]She's the best
[01:43.13]And once you understand you won't settle for less
[01:45.61]I confess
[01:46.28]It might sound corny or cliché'
[01:48.21]But I
[01:48.73]Look ahead after 40 when I'm gray
[01:50.87]You think I'll really care what other people say
[01:53.31]When I've got a beautiful girl that loves me still the same
[01:56.68]So you can chase skirts all day
[01:58.98]And make fun of every verse I say
[02:01.59]And I'll go back to my girl each night
[02:03.66]And with that
[02:04.24]I'ma be alright
[02:05.57]I'ma be alright
[02:06.70]I know she's with me through the good and the bad
[02:09.24]And she don't care about the goods that we have
[02:11.88]Yeah
[02:12.74]She will outlast
[02:14.17]When all things pass
[02:15.51]She's my better half
[02:16.96]I know she's with me on these long lonely nights
[02:19.72]Through the calm
[02:20.37]Through the storms
[02:21.06]And the fights
[02:22.43]Yeah
[02:23.11]She will outlast
[02:24.41]When all things pass
[02:25.88]She's my better half

[02:33.34]If you've found something good
[02:35.95]If you love someone
[02:37.73]Love someone
[02:38.78]Love them like you should

[02:46.25]If you love someone
[02:47.81]Love someone
[02:49.08]Love them like you should
[02:50.65]If you love her
[02:51.51]You tell her every day
[02:52.82]You'll never let her go
[02:53.96]Never let her get away
[02:55.37]You'll make it through whatever
[02:56.53]Moving on to brighter days
[02:57.81]But you gotta do better
[02:59.10]Than the average in the game
[03:00.62]You've gotta give it all
[03:01.65]If you wanna turn a page
[03:03.26]Moving through the chapter
[03:04.62]Go out of your way
[03:05.71]To make her feel loved
[03:07.00]To make her feel okay
[03:08.47]This is all you need
[03:09.44]The rest will fall in place
[03:10.74]Hey
