Better

I grew up running from the best of me
And I'm still not sure just who I am supposed be
So hold me again before I fall
Hold tight
Hold tight

I hung back in the shadows and periphery
And you took my hand through the bright lights when they blinded me
You kissed me again
You pulled me in close
You smiled
So I smiled

'Cause everything's better as soon as you're next to me
I know I fall apart, but you fix me with your heart
Everything's better
You're there in the fight with me
And when I fail to start, you fix me with your heart

I grew up trying to hit light speed
But I lost my nerve when the big kids kicked it out of me
You saved me the sin of getting lost in my mind, my mind

'Cause everything's better as soon as you're next to me
I know I fall apart, but you fix me with your heart
Everything's better
You're there in the fight with me
And when I fail to start, you fix me with your heart

Ooh
Ooh
Ooh

You're fearless in defeat
You're a dancer in the street
And you look the deepest darkness in the eye

We missed the last bus home
Found a park bench for a throne
And the stars stayed out tonight

And everything's better
Everything's better

Yeah, everything's better as soon as you're next to me
I know I fall apart, but you fix me with your heart
Everything's better
You're there in the fight with me
And when I fail to start, you fix me with your heart

Ooh
Ooh
I'm better with you
Ooh
Ooh
I'm better with you
