Could Do Better - Leon Jackson
Love is a rose
It grows when you feed it
But just as we believed it
The thorns were tearing at the skin
A beautiful dream rudely awakened
But this heart is vacant
There's nothing left here within
So before we turn and fade away my love
Be sure to learn from our mistakes
So rip us up and start again
But some day we will love again
So as a friend
It's high time our hearts got clever
'Cause I gave you everything I could
But we made bad from something good
And we were good but
Next time
We could do better
Could do better
Relieve every line every kiss
Every secret
But did we do what we needed
We were so unaware
So just let it burn
But learning a lesson
Let's make this cofession
Of all the blame that we share
And I wish that we could turn back
Time my love
Now that
We know all our mistakes
So rip us up and start again
But some day we will love again
So as a friend
It's high time our hearts got clever
'Cause I gave you everything I could
But we made bad from something good
And we were good but
Next time
We could do better
Sometimes love is not enough
To stay together
And we tried
So let's just learn from our mistakes
For some other lover's sake
As I watched you fade away
Baby rip us up and start again
But some day we will love again
So as a friend
It's high time our hearts got clever
'Cause I gave you everything I could
But we made bad from something good
And we were good but
Next time
We could do better
Could do better
Next time
Could do better
