Lyrics
FEEL BETTER - © 2012 - Anna Paddock
Is that whiskey again you pretty thing
Are you standing on one foot, shaky but balancing
Can you write me a letter, I'll read it out loud, we'll both feel better
Are you driving again, away in your truck
Don't know which way to go, everywhere you feel so stuck
What can you think now, Pour me a drink, whiskey it is
Back away a little, she's standing right there, you don't have to yell
Just calm down a little, you're taking her air, and you don't have to swear
Stay in bed today, you little thing
I know you're not sick, but it's worse off than they might think
You need to stay warm after a night of being so torn
Close your eyes awhile, you dreamy thing
Then paint all you see though you don't like what's happening
When your world comes apart, I know that your art still lights up the dark
Back away a little, she's standing right there, you don't have to yell
Just calm down a little, you're taking her air, and you don't have to swear
Back away a little, she's standing right there, you don't have to yell
Just calm down a little, you're taking her air, and you don't have to swear
Is that whiskey again you pretty thing
Are you standing on one foot shaky but balancing
Could you write me a letter, I'll read it out loud
We'll both feel better, we'll both feel better
We'll both feel
Feel Better
