"No Better Place" lyrics

"No Better Place"

Because the clouds moved in and hovered close
The ghosts inside their shape
You'll stay
When the rain changes the plan
And falls another day
You'll stay
And if the sun's too sad and needs to hide
Won't come out to play
It's okay

There's no other place, there's no other place
There's no other place for us to find
There's no better place, there's no better place
There's no better place than by my side

Just as the tree will stand through winter wind
And bitter snow
You can't go
And the river will round each hardened rock
Never stops its flow
You can't go
And when the spring, when everything's alive again
We can watch it grow
We'll take it slow

There's no other place, there's no other place
There's no other place for us to find
There's no better place, there's no better place
There's no better place than by my side

I know you don't know it yet
But I'm the one who's gonna get in your head
Let's pretend this is such a good party
'Cause you can leave over my dead body

I know you don't know it yet
But I'm the one who's gonna get in your head
Let's pretend this is such a good party
'Cause you can leave over my dead body

You can never leave, you can never leave
You can never leave, you can never leave
I won't let you leave, I won't let you leave
I won't let you leave, I won't let you leave
