Where's the rest in an old dream
that's startin to fade.
What's so pleasin bout good love
if two ain't there to play.
Well it must be a fool's time
that gets lost in the game
with a bad smile savin face
tryin to hide the shame.
(verse leading into chorus)
So when time comes to do some undoin
I can't share this picture you're viewin,
but if you look beyond the proof
the real portrait is a spoof.
chorus:
I've been better babe - oh yeah
just a print of a love you knew
I've been better babe - oh yeah
This image is foolin you.
I've been better babe - oh yeah
You're outa focus and missin the truth.
(instrumental break)
Well it's so unnatural
to think about leavin you.
My debt's so emotional
but it's hard to pay my dues.
We been down we been up
and I'm feelin down for you.
I can't seem to wrap it up
and hurt you with the truth.
So when time comes to do some undoin
I can't share this picture you're viewin
But if you look beyond the proof
the real portrait is a spoof.
(ending like chorus)
I've been better babe -woh yeah
Gotta face you with the truth
I've been better babe - umm umm
gotta level up with you.
Just a print of a love you knew.
I've been better babe - uh huh
you're outa focus and missin the truth..
oh ...I'm just a print of a love you knew
ummm hummm print of a love you knew..woh yeah.
rhythum & blues style song
