歌手:Willie Nelson
专辑:《A Horse Called Music》

Is the better part over
Has a raging river turned into a stream
Is the better part over
Are we down to not quite saying what we mean
And after thinking it over
Wouldn't you rather have the ending nice and clean
Where love remains in all the closing scenes
If the better part's over
Why hang around
For an ending that's laden with sorrow
We've both been around
We've both seen that movie before
And as much as I love you
I can't live while fearing tomorrow
If the better part's over
Then why should we try anymore
Is the better part over

Has a raging river turned into a stream
Is the better part over
Are we down to not quite saying what we mean
And after thinking it over
Wouldn't you rather have the ending nice and clean
Where love remains in all the closing scenes
Is the better part's over
