[Pre-Chorus]
When we are old I better go first
'Cause a second without you in this life would be the worst
But until then I'll go where you go
I will follow your lead to the end of the earth but when we are old
[Chorus]
I better go first
I better go
I better go first
I better go, better go, better
I better go first
I better go
I better go first
I better go, bettеr go, better
I bettеr go first
[Verse]
Everyone's afraid to die
But I'm not scared of life
And what it will look like without you by my side?
And is it death or what happens next?
It's just that I could have more breath
The more my heart beats in my chest
And I wasn't made for that kind of hurt
So I'm afraid you're gonna have to put me in the dirt
But don't you see? I promise I'll be (Promise I'll be)
Right there to greet you when it's your turn
[Pre-Chorus]
Yeah, when we are old I better go first
'Cause a second without you in this life would be the worst
But until then I'll go where you go
I will follow your lead to the end of the earth but when we are old
[Chorus]
I better go first
I better go
I better go first
I better go, better go, better
I better go first
I better go
I better go first
I better go, better go, better
I better go first
[Post-Chorus]
I better go, better go, better
I better go first
I better go, better go, better
I better go first
I better go, better go, better
I better go first
I better go, better go, better
I better go first
[Outro]
'Cause a second without you in this life would be the worst
But until then I'll go where you go
I will follow your lead to the end of the earth but when we are old
I better go, better go, better
I better go first
