"I Know Better Now" by Kelly Willis
(written by Jim Lauderdale)
Oh, I must have left some stones unturned
Or could be quite a few
There's a lot I've overlooked
And never knew
There's some things you learn while getting burned
Don't feel good at the time
Playing by your set of rules
Pretending that you'll never lose
Well, I know better now
Yeah, I know better now
It just took a while
To figure it out
There's so much to take for granted
When life is going well
When the tides will turn
No one can tell
Some wise men knew that played the blues
That no one's hardly heard
The high cost of fooling yourself
Not mentioning everyone else
But I know better now
Yeah, I know better now
It just took a while
To figure it out
Some mysteries
Hang on the breeze
And we'll all go to some big hotel
Where weary hearts can rest
Getting and giving more of
The faith and the hope and the love
But I know better now
Yeah, I know better now
It just took a while
To figure it out
It just took me a while
To figure it out
