Better for the Next
Donovan Melero Lyrics


I felt some hope today and tried to see it through.
It's not what I had wanted but it's the truth.
If I could try again I probably would not.
The way I gain perspective could not exist if I did.

Only with my self reflection can I see the error.
Guess you weren't the one to ride me out in the end.
I ruined every ounce of progress when I'd see your message.
I have felt it happen many times.
How time flies.
Je t'ai aimé comme je l'ai fait
But I'll be better for the next.
Better for the next.

The tattoos that we share are never going to fade.
But the way we felt when we got them will go away
The words I put on paper seem to all come true.
Even though it won't be with me, I wish the best for you.

Only with my self reflection can I see the error.
Guess you weren't the one to ride me out in the end.
I ruin every ounce of progress just to see your picture
I have felt it happen many times.
How time flies.
Je t'ai aimé comme je l'ai fait
But I'll be better for the next.

Better for the next.

Every time I hear a new donovan melero song I feel like it's been in my heart my whole life and I've heard it before. I mean that as a big compliment

@ericanderson4151

Donovan is a great singer, without a doubt.

Too underrated.

@josephbastidas3561

Donovan never disappoints whether it's solo material or his bands. He always delivers lyrically and vocally.

@high54me

Incredibly heartfelt and gorgeous. It will get better with time. It will suck until then, though 😭

@KIT_TV22

Endless transformations.
The shedding of shallow skin.

The life you live is a miracle.
I'm thankful you chose to begin.

May your music never end Donovan.
