All of this time I planned,
I'd be patient and,
You would love me again.
You'd come to respect my mind,
And at last you find,
You could love me again.
And I have turned my whole world upside down,
Trying not to let you go.
Watching you walk away,
Is like a fatal blow. (Woah!)

Is that my name up on that list?
Does someone know that I exist?
Is this a mistake?
Am I even awake?
Pinch me now to make sure.

Yes that's my name in black and white,
Maybe I'm doing something right.
Wow, I feel so much better than before.

Warner, sorry I've been a pest,
But I guess my best was not working with you.
But looks like I've found a cure,
And I so look forward to working with you.
Hey, you remember when we spent spring break in the hot tub every night?
We said nothing else could ever feel so right.
(Well this might!) (Snap!)

Seeing my name up on that list,
That beats the first time that we kissed.
You thought I was dumb,
But I think that somebody's judgement was poor.
Seeing my name in black and white,
It's like making love with you all night.
No wait! It feels so much better, hello much better,
It's, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, much better.
I feel so much better than before.

Maybe she's what you prefer,
But hey last year I was her.
Maybe you will change your mind,
But you might look up to find,
I've gone on to better things, better jobs or bigger rings.
I don't have the time to cry,
I'm too busy loving my name up on that list.
Kind of a cool ironic twist.
Who else can I tell?
Oh, wait where's my cell,
Mom will fall on the floor.
(Hey, mom!) Look at my name in black and white,
Your daughter's doing something right.
I feel so much better.

I'll be there on Monday nine o'clock,
And we will see who walks the walk!
(No, no I can't wait!)
I will be there at eight,
When they unlock the door.
I'll even dress in black and white,
See I have not begun to fight.
And they'll go, oh much better, hello much better,
And soon all ya'll gonna know much better.

I am so much better.
I am so much better.
I am so much better,
Than before. (Yea!)
