Devil You Know

[Verse 1]
I could wash my hands of you
Move on to the next new thing
We curse and fight 'til you feel that you've got it right
What's the use in me sayin' anything at all

[Pre-Chorus]
I walk these streets and every damn guy that I see

[Chorus]
I wonder, if he could do a better job than you
He's so much younger, I wouldn't even have to think it through
But there's no doubt in my mind, it's just a matter of time
Before the cracks and the lines start to show
So it's better, better the devil you know

[Verse 2]
Where did those young lovers go?
Watching dusk turn to dawn through the window
It used to feel so right, but now we're just ships passing in the night
Is this what happens over time? Would it happen with any guy?

[Chorus]
But still I wonder if he could do a better job than you
He's so much younger, I wouldn't even have to think it through
But there's no doubt in my mind, it's just a matter of time
Before the cracks and the lines start to show
So it's better, better the devil you know

[Bridge]
And I miss how you once looked at me
But I know, how far we've come don't come easy

So I wonder, who could do a better job than you?
When we were younger, we didn't even have to think it through

[Chorus]
Oh I wonder, who could do a better job than you
When we were younger, we didn’t even have to think it through
There's no doubt in my mind, it's just a matter of time
Before the cracks and the lines start to go
So it's better, it’s better the devil you know

[Outro]
Mmmm yeah
