She was standing on the wrong corner When things took a turn for the worse He was driving by so slow He might as well be going in reverse
She was looking for a free ride He was looking for a hole to fill She said, "don't you try and hold me here Against my will
And I'll stick around Til something better Comes along" Something better might not never come on
She was wise beyond here years And her lies he believed She used to have friends in high places Til they asked her to leave
She wakes up feeling hollow To another line in the sand He's putty in her idle hands She says, "I'll stick around Til something better Comes along
Yeah, I'll stick around Til something better Til something better comes along" Something better might not never come on
He pretended he was sleeping He hears her whisper into the phone She said, "I feel so alone I can't take it any longer"
He thought he could impress her She picks her clothes up off the floor She grabbed his wallet off the dresser She gave him more than he bargained for
Yeah, I'll stick around Til something better Comes along Yeah, I'll stick around Til something better Til something better comes along Yeah, I'll stick around Til something better Til something better comes along Yeah, I'll stick around Til something better comes along Something better might not never come on
