Why have I always tried so hard
Tend to the garden, neglect the yard
So full of love, and this is what I get
Pull up the weeds, did the flowers bloom yet
Maybe there's a reason for it all
Maybe there's a cave behind every waterfall
Was it better to love than to not at all
Was I happier with someone than talking to a wall
And even though it ended in a pouring rain
Was it better to love
Than to not at all
I know there's beauty in everything
A lesson learned, someone to blame
I know everything will be okay
I just want someone to know my name
Before it takes its place on my grave
I'm always told it'll be okay
When your back's against the wall, it's hard to say the same
Was it better to love than to not at all
Was I happier with someone than talking to a wall
And even though it ended in a pouring rain
Was it better to love
Was it better to love
Than to not at all
