[Verse]
It's better this way
As it always was
With your arms around me
Is it what you want?
So you tell yourself
For the second time
With your arms around me
But you're letting go

[Chorus]
Although it breaks my heart
Don't wanna make it stop
You're gonna string me along
And tell me I was wrong
So I laugh now, cry later
So I laugh now, cry later

[Verse]
It's better this way
When it's you and I
With your arms around me
And we're in my room
So you tell yourself
For the second time
With your arms around me
It's better this way
[Chorus]
Although it breaks my heart
Don't wanna make it stop
You're gonna string me along
And tell me I was wrong
So I laugh now, cry later
So I laugh now, cry latеr
