All The Better Things
All The Better Things
[Verse 1: Jeremiah]
I'll remember when you first held my hand
And when I wrote "I love you" in the Bahamian sand
How I came to you with all my problems
And you always helped me to solve em’
[Pre-Chorus: Jeremiah]
But I loved you with love unconditional
And sadly you gave up the fight and let me go
[Chorus: Jeremiah]
If all I've got left are pictures and the memories
Then I'm gonna choose to remember all the better things
If you’re truly gone then what's the point of holding on
To those old things that ended on the telephone?
There's no need to grasp onto anything
That's making my heart continue crumbling
So I'm gonna choose to hold onto the better things
That built me up and formed up a melody
[Verse 2: Jeremiah]
Now this don't mean i'd let you back in my life
'Cause I can’t have the girl I knew for my wife
This means I forgive ya
And I’m moving on with the better you
[Chorus: Jeremiah]
If all I've got left are pictures and the memories (If all i’ve got left are the pictures and the memories yeah)
Then I'm gonna choose to remember all the better things
If you're truly gone then what's the point of holding on (What’s the point of holding on to em'?)
To those old things that ended on the telephone?
There's no need to grasp onto anything (There's no need to grasp onto any sad times)
That's making my heart continue crumbling
So I'm gonna choose to hold onto the better things (Hold on to em')
That built me up and formed up a melody
[Interlude: Jeremiah]
You formed it up x 8 (This means I forgive ya x 3)
[Post-Chorus: Jeremiah]
But I loved you with love unconditional
And sadly you gave up the fight and let me go
