Intr: My girl came home to me just the other day, acting OK I was reading alone in my favourite room, the TV was on May I be excused for not telling the truth 'Cos she's gone, she said / she's better off on her own She turned her head / much better off on her own My girl knocked on the door / to the place I usually refer to as home I died, shoelace untied / she looked in my eyes, small and surprised And God closed every gaze / the moon fell into the lake Boy, she's gone, a drift / She's better off on her own She closed, then she left / much better off on her own Sitting naked by the windowsill / watching cars upon the hill I sleeping? / I was dreaming / For just a moment time stood still Solo: ( Better off on her own )... ( Better off on her own) Now she's gone, she said / she's better off on her own She turned her head / much better off on her own She's gone, she sighed / she's better off on her own The tears I cried / much better off on her own My girl came home to me just the other day.
