Pete Stewart - Better Off lyrics

There's an ugly town
By a river where the water's brown
Well, everybody's down

And full of broken dreams
Never satisfied
Took the plunge and then I took a ride
To the other side
I heard the grass was green

Chorus:
And now I'm better off this time
You know I'm better off this time
And everything is starting over
‘cause the winds of change are blowin' across my life

V2:
Living life in charge
Never thought that I could crash so hard
Like a falling star
I knew the end was here
Then I met a man
From a very strange and distant land
He took me by the hand
And told me to draw near

Chorus:
And now I'm better off this time
You know I'm better off this time
And everything is starting over
Because He is now the master of my life

Bridge:
I tried to run and I tried to hide
From the truth that I knew inside
Everything I lived for seemed to fade away
God, your love never hid from me
But sometimes it was hard to see
Salvation is the one and only way
