Absent Elk – Better Than You

Is it a curse or a blessing
Not to give up before you win?
I look at you
It doesn't mean a thing
to you, I well, I do

Oh and you say
You want a perfect day
put to shame my ambitious ways
How you appreciate whats on display
Really puts me in my place

Whoa-oh-whoa
I couldn't do it if I tried
Ho-oh, To be better than you
Ah-Oh, To be better than you

I used to walk down the riverside
in just a small town for a while
A simple recipe to keep you smiling
there's Nothing more to it

And you ask what is on my mind
"You're looking distant, are you all right?"
I reassure you I am doing fine
Like I've done a thousand times

Whoa-oh-whoa
I couldn't do it if I tried
Ho-oh, To be better than you
Ah-Oh, To be better than you

Whoa-oh-whoa
I couldn't do it if I tried
Ho-oh, To be better than you
Ah-Oh, To be better than you

She doesn't Know, She Doesn't know
Just how easy she flows
Far, far away from it all
Kick me, throw me your bones
Oh what I know what I know
We Both got Our Separate Goals
Differences in what we want
And what we are settling for

I'm not sure
Ho-oh, I'm not sure
Whoa-oh-whoa
I couldn't do it if I tried
Ho-oh, To be better than you
Ah-Oh, To be better than you

I couldn't do it if I tried
(If I tried) X2
I couldn't do it if I tried
(If I tried) X2
I couldn't do it if I tried
(If I tried) X2
I couldn't do it if I tried
(If I tried) X2
N-n-n-not If I tried, tried
Oh Not if I Tried, tried
Not If I Tried, Tried
