[Verse 1] I’ve been called a bad idea, I’ve been called a damn good time. I’ve been somebody’s favorite sin, And somebody’s warning sign. I’ve left a few hearts tangled, Had a couple breaks go clean, But I’ve never been the kind of man You’d wish you’d never seen. [Pre-Chorus 1] I know I’ve got my rough edges, A stubborn streak or two. But distance has a funny way Of changing someone’s view. [Chorus] I look better in hindsight, Better with a little space. Funny how my worst qualities Get prettier with age. You forget what drove you crazy, Keep the things that made you smile. I haven’t changed a damn thing, You just haven’t seen me in a while. [Verse 2] I’ve been known to lose my keys, With the car already running. Tell a joke at the wrong time, Still convinced that I was funny. I’ve got plans I’ll get around to, And a clock I’m always behind. But I can make a Tuesday feel Like the best day of your life. [Pre-Chorus 2] I know I’m not for everyone, I’ve never claimed to be. But give it just a little time, You’ll remember the best of me. [Chorus] I look better in hindsight, Better with a little space. Funny how my worst qualities Get prettier with age. You forget what drove you crazy, Keep the things that made you smile. I haven’t changed a damn thing, You just haven’t seen me in a while. [Bridge] I haven’t gotten wiser, I still lose track of time. Still think I’m pretty funny, Still forget where I parked sometimes. But if memory’s got a soft spot For the trouble left behind, I reckon I’ll be damn near perfect In another couple nights. [Final Chorus] I look better in hindsight, Better with a little space. Funny how my worst qualities Get prettier with age. You forget what drove you crazy, Keep the things that made you smile. I haven’t changed a damn thing, You just haven’t seen me in a while.
