Love took me for a ride, and left me on the side of the road
I took the blame, I carried the shame, then the truth started to unfold.
But loving and losing that’s just all about living
and it’s made me who I am.
And running and hiding that’s just laying down and dying
And I ain’t living like that.
So I poured a good beer and finally started laughing
Bought a new pair of shoes, one’s just for dancin’
And I’m hangin’ around some old friends
You never liked back then
I’ve been working real hard, but playin’ even harder
Since I’ve been gone, I think I got smarter
And I’m learnin’ to live and I’m better, than I’ve ever been
Yea livin’ well …is the best revenge
You tried to make me stop trustin’that fate had something better to come
Instead of leavin’ I just stopped believing and you kept me there under your thumb
But diggin’out of doubting that’s just all about defying
Ever word you put into my head
Now I’m more than just surviving, I’m loving life and thrivin
So I’ll say again what I just said…
So I poured a good beer and finally started laughing
Bought a new pair of shoes, one’s just for dancin’
And I’m hangin’ around some old friends
You never liked back then
I’ve been working real hard, but playin’ even harder
Since I’ve been gone, I think I got smarter
And I’m learnin’ to live and I’m better, than I’ve ever been
Yea livin’ well …is the best revenge
