Better Alone

My heart drops dead every time that I see her Run upstairs so I can get the picture clearer walking past my room In the early afternoon Long dark hair, in an oversized sweater Know you don't care but I can pretend that you do In the early afternoon Oh, maybe one day suddenly You'll look up and notice me up there But I'm too scared Maybe I'm better alone (alone, alone) I say I'll get better, I won't Maybe I'm better alone I woke up in the morning Talked myself up, got the courage Then I waited in my room Right before the afternoon I saw you take the corner I was opening the door when I saw, two It wasn't only you Maybe I'm better alone (alone, alone) I say I'll get better, I won't Maybe I'm better alone Just the way that it's always been I'll be there for myself Guess I have to let you go I'm better off alone Maybe I'm better alone Imagine if it went another way Imagine if I got the chance to say That all this time I've waited for you here Oh, imagine if it went another way Imagine if I got the chance to say That all this time I've waited for you But maybe I'm better alone (alone, alone) I say I'll get better, I won't Maybe I'm better alone Just the way that it's always been I'll be there for myself Guess I have to let you go I'm better off alone Maybe I'm better alone
