Luyện nghe bài hát A Better Place To Be

It was an early morning bar
And the place opened up
And the man come in so fast and it
Started at his

And the who served the whiskey
She was a big old girl
And tried to fight her empty
By at the world

And she "Hey Bub, It's been awhile
Since you around
Where the hell you hidin'?
And why you so down ?

The little man just sat there like he'd heard a sound
The waitress she gave out a cough
not the least put off
She spoke again

She said, "I don't to bother you
it's understood
I know I'm not no queen
But I sure can good"

And the little man his drink in his hand
And he it to his lips
He took a of sips
And he told that this story

I am the midnight down at Miller's Tool and Die
And I the metal rusting, I watch the time go by
A week ago at the Diner, I to get a bite
And this here lovely lady she sat two seats from my
And Lord, Lord,
She was

You see, she was so damned beautiful she could warm a frost
But she looked long past lonely, and well kinda lost
Now I'm not of a mover or a pick-em-up easy guy
But I decided to on over and give her one good try
And Lord, Lord,
She was a try

And I was like a school boy
I stammered out some
It did not seem to matter much I don't think she heard
She just looked clear on through me to a space back in my
And it me into silence, as quietly she said

'If you want me to come with you all right with me
'Cause I know I'm going and anywhere's a better place to be
a better place to be'

When I drove her to my house and I took her up to my room
And I went to turn on the only to brighten up the gloom
But she said, "Please leave the light off, oh, I don't the dark"
And as her all tumbled 'round her, I could hear my heart

The moonlight shown her as she lay back in my bed
It was the kind of I only had imagined in my head
I just not believe it, to think that she was real
And as I to tell her she said, "I know just how you feel

And if you to come here with me that's all right with me
'Cause I've been oh so lonely, someone is a better way to be
a better way to be"

When the came so swiftly I held her in my arms
She slept like a baby, snug and from harm
I did not want to share her or to break the mood
So before she woke I went out to buy us some food
I came back with my paper bag to that she was gone
She'd left a six word letter saying, 'It's time that I on'

You the waitress took her bar rag
And she wiped it her eyes
And as she spoke her voice came out as something a sigh
She said, "I wish I was beautiful or that you were halfway blind
And I wish I weren't so fat, I wish that you were mine
And I that you'd come with me when I leave for home
For we know all about emptiness and livin' all alone"

And the man
Looked at the empty in his hand
And he smiled a grin
He said, "I I'm out of gin
And I know we both have so lonely

And if you want me to come with you that's all right me
'Cause I know I'm goin' nowhere and anywhere's a better to be'"
