Better Than This
Keane

Is this what you meant?

Is this

What you dreamed of?

When you were making

Your plans

Shaking the dirt off?

Do you feel like you

And I belong?

(Oh, ah, oh)

Just keep your eyes

On the road

And nothing can go wrong


You could do so much

Better than this

You could do so much

Better than this


I've been checking my sums

Oh where did the time go?

Holding my photograph up

To the window

Through the paper

A refracted sun

(Oh, ah, oh)

I can see all the things

I wish that I'd done


You can hang your hopes

On the bedsits masses

You can put your faith

In the foreign

You can tell yourself

You can do your best

You could do so much

Better than this


Get a grip on yourself

Get a grip on yourself

Could have been something

But you're too late

And you

Wouldn't want it anyway


Just a photograph

From the wrong time

'Cause there

Is no soap star

Holding your hand

You can see yourself

In a freeze-frame

Must be someone else

Using your name


And everyone

Will be the same

And everyone will __

And everywhere

You'll see your name

In every shop window


It's better than this

You could do so much

Better than this

You could do so much

Better than this

You could do so much

Better than this
