Better
Embracing Healing: Luke Perry's Reflection on Heartbreak
Lyrics
How's he doing is he doing just fine?
Asking about the well-being of the person's ex-partner
Do you think about me lying by him at night?
Wondering if the ex-partner thinks about the speaker while with someone else at night
And I still wonder what goes through your mind
Curiosity about what thoughts occupy the ex-partner's mind
But it don't mean that I want you back
Stating that concern doesn't imply a desire to rekindle the relationship
Are you happy? Does he make you melt?
Questioning if the ex-partner is happy with their current relationship
Even though you ruined me and put me through hell
Expressing hurt caused by the ex-partner despite wishing them well
Oh babe I wish you, wish you more than well
Expressing a wish for the ex-partner's happiness despite the pain caused
But it don't mean that I want you back
Reiterating that wishing well doesn't mean wanting the ex-partner back
I meant what I said
Reaffirming the sincerity of the speaker's previous statements
When you left this broken man
Reflecting on the impact of the ex-partner's departure on the speaker's state
Just to please your selfish heart
Accusing the ex-partner of leaving for selfish reasons
I meant what I said
Reiterating the authenticity of the previous statement
Don't come back to me again
Rejecting the ex-partner's potential return due to past actions
Cause you've shown me who you are
Realization of the ex-partner's true nature through their actions
Oh I think about you, talk about you, I'm trying to find my way without you
Struggling to move forward without the ex-partner, but attempting to do so
Though it's so hard moving on, I'm better with you gone
Admitting that life is better without the ex-partner despite difficulties in moving on
Was he worth it? Two years down the drain
Questioning if the ex-partner's current relationship was worth the sacrifice of their past one
We were perfect but you threw it all away
Expressing regret for a lost perfect relationship due to the ex-partner's actions
And now I'm broken, I'll never be the same
Feeling broken and acknowledging the irreversible change due to the breakup
But it don't mean that I want you back
Repeating that despite the pain, there's no desire to reconcile
I meant what I said
Reiteration of the sincerity and refusal to welcome the ex-partner back
When you left this broken man
-Just to please your selfish heart
-I meant what I said
-Don't come back to me again
-Cause you've shown me who you are
-Oh I think about you, talk about you, I'm trying to find my way without you
Continued struggle to move on without the ex-partner
Though it's so hard moving on, I'm better with you gone
Acknowledging that life has improved since the ex-partner's departure
I’m better with you gone
Reinforcing the stance of being better off without the ex-partner despite the difficulty in letting go
I meant what I said
-When you left this broken man
-Just to please your selfish heart
-I meant what I said
-Don't come back to me again
-Cause you've shown me who you are
-I meant what I said
-When you left this broken man
-Just to please your selfish heart
-I meant what I said
-Don't come back to me again
-Cause you've shown me who you are
-Though I think about you, talk about you, I'm trying to find my way without you
-Though it's so hard moving on
-Though I think about you, talk about you, I'll be a better man without you
-Though it's so hard moving on, I'm better with you gone
-I’m better with you gone
