Lyrics of RATHER BE by GIVĒON

Rather Be A Fool
Than To Start With Somethin’ New (Start With Somethin’ New)
Cryin’ Hardly Does It Anymore
Can’t Drink With Your Pain Anymore, Oh
Oh, I’d Rather

I’d Rather Be A Fool Than Believe In Someone New
I’d Rather Be With You
Than The Other Half Of Someone Who’s Not Even Half Of You

Oh-oh
Yeah
Oh-oh-oh

Now I’m In This Room
Wishin’ You Settled Down Or Come Around
I’ve Been Dancin’ To All The Songs That You Love All Along
Lost In The Dark
’cause You Stole The Sun, Oh-oh
Oh, Tears Are Fallin’
When I See Your Face In Our Phone, I Can’t Erase The Memory

Countin’ All The Ways She Ain’t Right For Me
I’ll Take Your Mistakes Over Missin’ You, Always (Ooh)
Am I Out Of Place? Out Here When I’m Supposed To Leave
Oh, I’m Tellin’ You

Rather Be A Fool Than Believe In Someone New
I’d Rather Be With You
Than The Other Half Of Someone Who’s Not Even Half Of You

Oh-oh
Yeah
Oh-oh-oh
