Friends ask how I'll get along without you
They say it's so sad we're apart
And I have to agree that I don't seem like me
I'm having a ball with my heart

Anything's better than nothing nothing's not too much to lose
Anything's better than nothing nothing's what I've had with you

I've got to admit that it hurt me
I don't like to fight or to fuss
But now you and me are happy we're free
Everyone's crying but us

Anything's better than nothing...

It really must be disappointing
To see love and dreams turn to smoke
I can't blame my friends when their teardrops begin
I once thought that love made a home

Anything's better than nothing...
Nothing's what I've had with you
