Tim Rice-Oxley - Better Than This lyrics

[Verse 1] Is this what you meant? Is this what you dreamed of? When you were making your plans Shaking the dirt off? Do you feel like You and I belong? (Oh, ah, oh) Just keep your eyes on the road And nothing can go wrong [Chorus] You could do so much Better than this You could do so much Better than this [Verse 2] I've been checking my sums Oh where did the time go? Holding my photograph Up to the window Through the paper And refracted sun (Oh, ah, oh) I can see all the things I wish that I'd done [Chorus 2] You can hang your hopes on the medicine You can put your faith in the phone-in You can tell yourself you're doing your best You could do so much better than this [Bridge] Get a grip on yourself Get a grip on yourself Could have been something But you're too late And you weren't invited anyway [Chorus 3] 'Cause the photographs Show the wrong man 'Cause there is no soap star Holding your hand You don't see yourself In the freeze-frame Must be someone else Using your name And everyone will be the same And everyone will glow And everywhere, you'll see your name In every shop window [Chorus] It's better than this You could do so much better than this You could do so much better than this You could do so much better than this
