Leona Lewis - Better In Time Lyrics

Artist: Leona Lewis

Album: Spirit

  • Songwriters: Andrea Monica Martin, Jonathan Rotem
  • Also in:

It's been the longest winter without you
I didn't know where to turn to
See somehow I can't forget you
After all that we've been through

Go in, come in, thought I heard a knock
Who's there? No one, thinking that I deserved it
Now I realize that I really didn't know
You didn't notice, you mean everything
Quickly I'm learning to love again
All I know is, I'ma be okay

Thought I couldn't live without you
It's gonna hurt when it heals too, oh yeah
(It'll all get better in time)
Even though I really loved you
I'm gonna smile 'cause I deserve to
(It'll all get better in time)

How could I turn on the TV
Without something there to remind me?
Was it all that easy
To just put aside your feelings?

If I'm dreaming, don't wanna let, hurt my feelings
But that's the path, I believe in
And I know that, time will heal it
You didn't notice, you mean everything
Quickly I'm learning to love again
All I know is, I'ma be okay

Thought I couldn't live without you
It's gonna hurt when it heals too, oh yeah
(It'll all get better in time)
Even though I really loved you
I'm gonna smile 'cause I deserve to
(It'll all get better in time)

Since there's no more you and me
It's time I let you go so I can be free
And live my life how it should be
No matter how hard it is, I'll be fine without you
Yes, I will

Thought I couldn't live without you
It's gonna hurt when it heals too, oh
(It'll all get better in time)
Even though I really loved you
I'm gonna smile 'cause I deserve to, yes, I do
(It'll all get better in time)

Thought I couldn't live without you
It's gonna hurt when it heals too, yeah
(It'll all get better in time)
And even though I really loved you
I'm gonna smile 'cause I deserve to

    I&#039m still wondering if I&#039ll ever get over my hurt. Someone I really looked up to let me down. I still love him but also hate him for what he did. I know I need to move on cuz I never see him, but somehow I can&#039t. This song reminds me of him and I love listening to it cuz I feel like he&#039s right there beside me. It helps though. These comment things are ---- by the way :P

    My husband of six years just left me two weeks after we found out I was pregnant with our second child. Not sure the reasons, but I will always love him. But this song helps me remember that I will be okay without him. Even when I heal it will hurt, but me and my kids will be okay. Love will find a way

    My boyfriend of 5 years and two young kids 1 and 2 left me. Emotionally and physically abusive I tried to make it work and still for some reason want him back, but when I heard this song I realized that it may take awhile for me to get over him but things will get better in time, mostly cuz of what he gave me, my beautiful daughter and son. Thank you so much for this song, it makes me cry, but makes me smile.

    He never said it. but the biggest cruelty of all is he let me believe it. then walked away.
    My Inspiration:

    "And even though I really love you
    I'm gonna smile cause I deserve to"

    The love of my life always ignited such joy in me that I'd smile all the time when we were together. He recently took his life and I fear perhaps he took my smile with him. This song is helping me to say good bye and to carry on...smiling anyway.

    even though me and my husband are still together he is in prison and i cant be with him. this song made me realize that i still deserve to smile. Love does not always suck but when you cant be with the one you love it can drive you to insanity. Thanks for the song. it has helped me out a lot

    Just broke up with a husband that never makes me smile or feel good about myself. This song gives me inspiration to keep moving forward and know I deserve to smile. And funy it is winter time. My first marriage at 34 and never thought it would turn out this way. My heart hurts and this song hits so close to home with all the words. I can't help but hear the gravel of him coming (home) down the driveway. Or when the phone rings rush to see if it's him calling. Love sucks....Thanks for the words.....Lonely but moving forward Me....
