"Been Better" lyrics

"Been Better"

I've been doing laps round this city
Drinking til I've drunk one too many
Convincing all my friends out here with me
That I've never been better

This ain't my first last call, I've been on one lately
You could say that I've turned into the guy at the bar you hated
And you'd hate that I'm looking for you in a strangers eyes
I know it won't work but it's worth a try

I've been doing laps round this city
Drinking til I've drunk one too many
Convincing all my friends out here with me
That I've never been better
Living every night like some party
Faded, waking up with somebody
Baby, but the truth is nobody
Has ever been better than you

My nights are long cause my days are tough
And I drink a lot to not think too much
And I turn to that when I crave your touch
And I go too far
But not far enough to forget bout how I used to hold your body
Under that polka dot, black and white spotted blanket on the couch
Baby I still got it
This whole damn house is haunted

I've been doing laps round this city
Drinking til I've drunk one too many
Convincing all my friends out here with me
That I've never been better
Living every night like some party
Faded, waking up with somebody
Baby, but the truth is nobody
Has ever been better than you

If you walked in here tonight
If you looked me in the eye
I would say I'm doing fine, that I'm alright...
But that's a lie

That's a lie

Cause I've been doing laps round this city

Convincing all my friends out here with me

That I've never been better
Living every night like some party
Faded, waking up with somebody
Baby, but the truth is nobody
Has ever been better than you

Has ever been better than you

Baby, but the truth is nobody
Has ever been better than you
