Gerry Rafferty: You Put Something Better Inside Of Me

You put something better
Inside of me
You put something better
Inside of me

I could look out the windows
Or stare at the wall
But really it didn't matter
No I just didn't care at all

Could be sitting by the water
& counting every stone
Cause nothing means nothing
When you're empty and on your own

You put something better
Inside of me
You put something better
Inside of me

Makes me so much stronger
I'm amazed at the change in me

Well I knew what I was doing
I was running away
Busy going nowhere
Just wasting the time of day
Walking down the road
Kicking up the stones

Nothing means nothing
When your empty and on your own

You put something better
Inside of me
You put something better
Inside of me

Makes me so much stronger
I'm amazed at the change in me

You put something better
Inside of me
You put something better
Inside of me

Makes me so much stronger
I'm amazed at the change in me

Another World version

I love you

You put something better inside of me
You put something better inside of me
It's making me so much stronger
I'm amazed at the change in me

(touch me with your heart of gold)

I could look out the window
Or stare at the wall
It really didn't matter
No I just didn't care at all

I could be sitting by the water
Counting every stone
Nothing means nothing
When you're empty and on your own (yeah but)

You put something better inside of me
You put something better inside of me
Making me so much stronger
I'm amazed at the change in me

(You give me something that I'd never known before)

Well I knew what I was doing
I was running away
Busy going nowhere (nowhere)
Wasting the time of day
Walking down the road (yes I was)
Kicking up the stones (stones)

Nothing means nothing (means nothing)
When your empty and on your own (yeah but)

You put something better inside of me
You put something better inside of me
Making me so much stronger
I'm amazed at the change in me

(You give me something that I'd never known before)

[Fade]
You put something better inside of me (put something better inside)
You put something better inside of me (put something better inside)
It's making me so much stronger
I'm amazed at the change in me
(and I love you)
