Текст песни Is the Better Part Over - Willie Nelson , Bobbie Nelson

Is the better part over?
Has a raging river turned into a stream?
Is the better part over?
Are we down to not quite sayin' what we mean?

After thinking it over
Wouldn't you rather have the ending nice and clean?
Where love remains in all the closing scenes?
The better part's over

Why hang around
For an ending that's laden on with sorrow?
We've both been around
We've both seen that movie before

As much as I love you
I can't live while fearing there tomorrow
And If the better part's over
Then why should we try anymore?

Is the better part over?
Has a raging river turned into a stream?
Is the better part over?
Are we down to not quite saying what we mean?

After thinking it over
Wouldn't you rather have the ending nice and clean?
Where love remains in all the closing scenes
If the better parts over
