Jason Mraz Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'm only leaving for a day
It's nice to have some time alone
And it's nice to know how I miss home
I wrote this song to let you know
I'm better with you
I'm better with you
I'm better with you
I'm better with you
I'm better because you are who I love to say those words to
You're always with me in my head
I take you with me in my heart
It's better when I'm in your bed
It's better when we're not appart
I just can't do this alone
I'm better with you
I'm better with you
I'm better because you give meaning to the words "I love you"
I'm better with you
I'm better with you
I'm better because you are who I love to say those words to
You, you
Yeah, life's about the people who surround you
Love's the only thing it all comes down to
I just want you to know
I'm better with you
I'm better with you
I'm better with you
I'm better with you
I'm better because you give meaning to the words "I love you"
I'm better with you
I'm better because you are who I love to say those words to
You, you

I'm better with you: Traducción
Empaqué mis cosas y me fui.
(Sólo me estoy yendo por un día).
Es bueno pasar algún tiempo a solas.
…Y es lindo saber cuánto extraño casa.
Escribí esta canción para hacerte saber que…
Soy mejor contigo.
Soy mejor a tu lado.
…Soy mejor porque le das significado a un “Te amo”.
Soy mejor contigo.
Soy mejor a tu lado.
...Soy mejor porque eres a quien amo dedicarle esas palabras.
Siempre estás en mi mente.
Te llevo en mi corazón.
…Es mejor cuando estoy en tu cama.
Y es aún mejor cuando no estamos separados.
Simplemente no puedo hacer esto solo.
Porque soy mejor contigo.
Soy mejor contigo.
Soy mejor porque le das significado a un “Te amo”.
Soy mejor contigo,
Soy mejor a tu lado.
…Soy mejor, porque eres a quien amo dedicarle esas palabras.
A ti
A ti… <3
Sí, la vida está repleta de gente alrededor.
Pero el amor es a lo único que se reduce.
Así que sólo quiero sepas:
Soy mejor contigo.
Estoy mejor contigo.
Soy mejor contigo,
Soy mejor a tu lado.
Soy mejor porque le das significado a un “Te amo”.
Soy mejor contigo.
Soy mejor a tu lado,
Soy mejor porque eres a quien amo dedicarle esas palabras.
