I've been counting all the reasons
Even though you never see them
Why his love ain't enough
Always giving you a tainted rose
Every word with no meaning
Never giving you the feeling
Now you're down on your knees
Praying for a glimmer of hope

Lord knows that he don't treat you good
Not treating you the way he should
Lord knows, knows I would
Lord knows I'd treat you better than he
You know deep in your bones
He don't make you feel at home
Lord knows, knows I would
Lord knows I'd treat you better than he would

Lord knows, knows I would
Lord knows I'd treat you better than he-
Lord knows, knows I would
Lord knows

Now I'm telling you the sun will rise (rise)
I will hold you on the darkest nights (nights)
Don't you ever be afraid
Your ghosts will never come to wake
Every word with no meaning
Never giving you the feeling
Now you're down on your knees
Praying a glimmer of hope

Lord knows that he don't treat you good
Not treating you the way he should
Lord knows, knows I would
Lord knows I'd treat you better than he-
You know deep in your bones
He don't make you feel at home
Lord knows, knows I would
Lord knows I'd treat you better than he would

He's got you feeling alone
You're in a house but not home
Where the sun don't set
And the light don't enter your soul
He's got you feeling alone
You're in a house but not home
Where the sun don't set
And the light don't enter your soul
Lord knows that he don't treat you good
Not treating you the way he should
Lord knows, knows I would
Lord knows I'd treat you better than he-
You know deep in your bones
He don't make you feel at home
Lord knows, knows I would
Lord knows I'd treat you better than he would

Treating you better than he should
