(BETTER) AFTER YOU
LOOKS LIKE THE SICK, STOPPED GETTING SICKER
ALL THE DRUNKS, GIVING UP THEIR LIQUOR
SINCE YOU AND I ENDED WHAT WE HAD
GOOD STUFF STARTED OVERCOMING BAD
IT COULDA BEEN COINCIDENCE
BUT EVERYTHING GOT BETTER AFTER YOU
IF THERE WERE FROWNS, THEY TURNED TO SMILES
PEOPLE HOLDING GRUDGES RECONCILED
KINDA SHOCKING HOW THE WORLD COULD CHANGE
THE MINUTE YOU AND I BECAME ESTRANGED
IT MIGHTA BEEN DUMB LUCK
BUT EVERYTHING GOT BETTER AFTER YOU
MAN, IT WAS ROUGH FOR A COUPLE DAYS
THEN I HEARD SOMEBODY SAY,
“THAT FALLING OUT OF LOVE’S HARD TO DO”
BEING ALONE DON’T BOTHER ME
FORGETTING ALL OUR HISTORY
IS TOUGHER THAN I THOUGHT, SHAKING YOU
YEAH, IT WAS ROUGH FOR A COUPLE WEEKS
THEN I HEARD SOMEBODY SPEAK
“FALLING OUT OF LOVE’S HARD TO DO”
BEING ALONE DON’T BOTHER ME
BUT DUMPING ALL THIS HISTORY
REALLY TOUGH TO SHAKE YOU, DEEP IN BLUE
LOOKING BACK, AFTER TIME
I REMEMBER WHAT IT FELT LIKE IN OUR PRIME
THAT’S WHY I’M HOLDING OUT SOME HOPE
YOU’LL TAKE ANOTHER SHOT ON THIS DOPE
CUZ THE PLAIN TRUTH IS THAT
NOT A THING GOT BETTER AFTER YOU
NOT A SINGLE THING

Love these harmonies. So beautiful. Lyrics very true. We can all relate. Like the bridge a lot. Another keeper.

Hey Carole,
Yeah, we liked the original, but like it better with these drums, and that lower harmony.
Thanks again,
Tom
