Sometimes I wonder just what I'm fighting for I win some battles, but I always lose the war I keep right on stumblin' in this no man's land out here But I know, oh, yes, I know There must be a better world somewhere Flying high, some joker clips my wings Just because he gets a kick out of doing those kind of things I keep on fallin' in space or just hangin' in mid-air But I know, oh, yes, I know There's just gotta be a better world somewhere Every woman I want only wants herself Everybody I love seems to love somebody else And every woman got a license to break my heart And every love affair is over before it gets a chance to start If it ain't here, maybe in the year after Instead of tears, I'll learn all about laughter But meanwhile, I'm stuck out here, it just ain't fair But I know, oh, yeah, I know There must be a better world somewhere Every woman I want only wants herself Everybody I love seems to love somebody else And every woman got a license to break my heart And every love affair is over, over before it gets a chance to start Oh, if it ain't here, maybe in the year after Instead of tears, I'll learn all about laughter Meanwhile, I'm stuck out here, it just ain't fair But I know, I said I know, oh yeah There must be a better world, oh yeah There's just gotta be, gotta be a better world somewhere Oh yeah
