Better Than Ever
Waylon Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I have seen the morning burning golden on the mountains in the skies
Achin' with the feelin' of the freedom of an eagle when she flies
Turnin' on the world the way she smiled upon my soul as I lay dying
Healin' as the colors in the sunshine and the shadows of her eyes

Wakin' in the mornin' to the feelin' of her fingers on my skin
Wipin' out the traces of the people and the places that I've been
Teachin' me that yesterday was something that I never thought of trying
Talkin' of tomorrow and the money, love and time we had to spend

Lovin' her was easier than anything I'll ever do again

Comin' close together with a feelin' that I've never known before, in my time
She ain't ashamed to be a woman, or afraid to be a friend
I don't know the answer to the easy way she opened every door in my mind
But dreamin' was as easy as believin' it was never gonna end

Lovin' her was easier than anything I'll ever do again
Lovin' her was easier than anything I'll ever do again
