[Pre-Chorus]
Is the better part over?
Has a raging river turned into a stream?
Is the better part over?
Are we down to not quite sayin' what we mean?

[Chorus]
And after thinking it over
Wouldn’t you rather have the ending nice and clean
Where love remains in all the closing scenes?
If the better part's over

[Verse 1]
Why hang around
For an ending that's laden with sorrow?
We’ve both been around
And we've both seen that movie before

[Verse 2]
And as much as I love you
I can't live while fearing tomorrow
If the better part's over
Then why should we try anymore?

[Pre-Chorus]
Is the better part over?
Has a raging river turned into a stream?
Is the better part over?
Are we down to not quite saying what we mean?
