Lyrics
A Better Bar
Verse 1
Sign on the bar says "Free beer tomorrow."
But nothin's free here today.
'Cause your news you're leavin' for my best friend
Cost more than my ol' heart can pay.
Verse 2
Another sign says: "If you're drinkin' to forget,
Please pay the bar in advance."
But I can't forget or ever forgive
How you robbed our love of its chance.
Chorus
Oh, I need a better bar to drown my sorrows
Where the signs are all good and there's no sad tomorrows.
Where the price of mem'ries and love ain't so huge
And the girl (guy) next to me is you.
Verse 3
Need a sign here sayin: "Welcome to Hell
All who believe love is true."
'Cause you'll never win back all the love you gave
To those "dear" ones who cheated on you.
Verse 4
Now I'm makin' my own sign for these hallowed walls
To all loveless who forever believe.
"If you can't count on that dear love of yours
Better up and get yourself free."
Repeat Chorus
Oh, I need a better bar to drown my sorrows
Where the signs are all good and there's no sad tomorrows.
Where the price of mem'ries and love ain't so huge
And the girl (guy) next to me is you.
Tag:
And the girl (guy) next to me is you.
