I'd Rather Have THIS than THAT

For weeks, everything I wrote was for you
I had a hard time moving on and hoped you did too
and when I needed you most, you weren't there
I knew in my heart that you didn't care

I finally found someone else to take your spot
I set myself free and gave him a shot
I know that your kisses
meant the world to me
But you turned your back
and I had to let you be

And when our love was unshared
That boy made me cry
But this man showed he cared
This man actually tried
I'd rather have this
than that
and I'd rather kiss this
than that
I have to admit
It's still hard to say goodbye
But I'm startin something new
cuz too many times
you made me cry

For weeks, everything I wrote was for you
I had a hard time moving on and hoped you did too
and when I needed you most, you weren't there
I knew in my heart that you didn't care

Well this time
this is dedicated to true love
cuz I know in my heart
This man was sent from above
and I'm lucky to be his girl
he says that I changed his world
but for real he changed mine
and now I know
that you were a waste of my time

I'd rather have this
than that
and I'd rather kiss this
than that
I have to admit
It's still hard to say goodbye
But I'm startin something new
cuz too many times
you made me cry
