Love You Better
God-Des & She Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Lovers, strangers
Heart breaks, changes
Every day things
Been through it all
Movies, cheap wine
Claps and cloud nine
All of this time
I'm still longing for your love

You woke me up in the middle of night
I knew that something wasn't right
By the look in your eyes
So close but still so far away
You say we had a good run
But you're turning the page
I wanna try it one more time
Not go separate ways
We're too close to let it slip away

So won't you stay?
Oh baby stay the night
I know I'll make things right
I give you my word this time
I'm gonna love you better
Stay, oh baby stay the night
I know I'll make things right

I give you my word this time
I'm gonna love you better

I'm gonna love you better

Bitter faces, holy places
We left our traces
Been through it all
So forgive, forget
Focus on me
And know that darling
I'm still longing for your love

You woke me up in the middle of night
I knew that something wasn't right
By the look in your eyes
So close but still so far away
You say we had a good run
But you're turning the page
I wanna try it one more time
Not go separate ways
We're too close to let it slip away

So won't you stay?
Oh baby stay the night
I know I'll make things right
I give you my word this time
I'm gonna love you better
Stay, oh baby stay the night
I know I'll make things right
I give you my word this time
I'm gonna love you better

I'm gonna love you better
Love you better

So won't you stay?
Oh baby stay the night
I know I'll make things right
I give you my word this time
I'm gonna love you better

Stay, oh baby stay the night
I know I'll make things right




I give you my word this time
I'm gonna love you better
