The hardest thing i'll ever do Is to walk away still loving you I'd give anything if you loved me But somethings just ain't meant to be Can't say it's all been time lost In the long run, i'll be a better man, better off Chorus Gonna find my pride, self esteem, get on with my life Follow my dreams, aint' lookin back Learn from my mistakes, once i'm past this heartache I know when the hurting stops, i'll be a better man, better off I know rome wasn't built in a day And there's alot of good memories in my way If i had it to do over again I wouldn't change a thing, except for the end Gonna be some pain, gotta pay the cost But in the long run, i'll be a better man, better off Chorus Solo I'm gonna learn from my mistakes Once i'm past the heartache I know when the hurting stops A better man A whole lot better off
