Rett Madison - Don't Know Better 'til You Do

Missed your call on the phone
Let you listen to the dial tone
When I knew very well we were both alone

Skipped a holiday or two
But I'd have booked a ticket if I only knew
That you had a few left in you

Well I should have done better by you
I should have done better by you
I should have done better,
But you don't know better 'til you do

My mind goes blank at our last fast
Cried when the news broke that night
I was waiting on you to make things right

I admit that pride gets my tongue
But you and I are of the same blood
And you played that game better than I could

Well I should have done better by you
I should have done better by you
I should have done better
But you don't know better 'til you do

Leave the light on my love in case you find a way back home
I'll leave the light on my love in case you find you way back home


Well I should have done better by you
I should have done better by you
I should have done better by you
But you don't know better 'til you do

I just wanted to wish you a Happy New Year
and every happiness that you wish for
and your health
and I just want you to be happy in 2019
So that's all Mama wants
Anyways, I'm sure you probably have plans with friends
Or going out or maybe staying home
I don't know what's going on
But anyway I just wanted to wish you a Happy New Year early in case we don't get to talk.
I love you.
Bye.
