Always Better

[FRANCESCA]
You could have driven into someone else's driveway
You could have tried to find the bridge another day
I could have gone off to the fair
Or locked the door, or washed my hair
And in a way, that would be better

We could have chosen to ignore what we were feeling
We could have prayed to make the wanting go away
But what we did
Is that we loved
And love is always better

I could have gone with you and left behind the cornfields
I could have seen a world like none I'd ever known
I could have tied my dreams to yours
And slept beside you on the moors
And who can say? That might be better

I could have not been where my children turned for answers
And never seen what they've become now that they're grown
But what I did
Is that I loved
And love is always better

It is hard
It is insane
To place one love
Above another
But what a choice!
And what a gift!
And what a blessing!

[COMPANY]
Oh oh oh...

[FRANCESCA]
I could have never known
That love like this existed
But then you kissed me
And you left and then I knew
But what is true
Is that we loved
And that I loved
And that I love
And I will always love
And love
Is always better

You and I
Are just one second
Spinning by
In one split-second
You and I
Have just one second
And a million miles to go
