From the recording Goodnight, Goodnight
Lyrics
Better Than Anyone<br />
<br />
This trinity, it gets to me<br />
Missing you, aching for quiet<br />
And it’s too late to call to New York<br />
You’re probably awake, I guess I’m afraid<br />
<br />
For weeks I’ve been crying too much<br />
Ditched my zoloft, still won’t be touched<br />
By the world moving by, Christmas lights<br />
Can you believe it, already again, (I know you can, cause)<br />
<br />
You know me better than anyone<br />
Anyone, ever so far<br />
You show me things that I never see<br />
Thanks for completing me. . . the way that you do (the way that you do)<br />
<br />
News from LA, well, I’m not a big star yet<br />
Trying real hard but I can’t seem to write what they want<br />
It’s so elusive and clear<br />
They’ll know it when they hear it (If they ever do, not like you, cause)<br />
<br />
Chorus<br />
<br />
Can you come here and stay, you know it be good for you<br />
It’d be good for me<br />
How’re they treating your play, have you found the right job yet<br />
What do the fortunetellers say? We don’t have them here...<br />
<br />
Not much snow yet this year<br />
I like it so gray--feels like a mirror<br />
And my diamond still shines, I wear it at night<br />
But I’d be more brilliant with you here...<br />
<br />
Chorus<br />
<br />
Yeah, I’d be more brilliant with you here. . .
