Better with You
Jesse McCartney Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
There's people fighting over point of view
Sometimes it's like there's nothing left to lose
And I don't know what to do
But I know it's better with you
I was a wreck when you came along
When there was nothing left
I'm still a mess but you hold on
Don't know just why you do
But I know I'm better with you
But I know I'm better with you
But I know I'm better with you
But I know I'm better with you
For every life there is a silent cry
For every day there is a darker night
Sometimes this life doesn't treat us right
And I don't know what to do
But I know it's better with you
I was a wreck when you came along
When there was nothing left
You showed me the best
I'm still a mess but you hold on
Don't know just why you do
But I know I'm better with you
But I know I'm better with you
But I know I'm better with you
Wherever you are, it's never as dark
Whenever I start slipping, you make all the difference
Been there from the start, no matter how hard
Whatever piece is missing, you know how to fix it
I was a wreck when you came along
When there was nothing left
You showed me the best
I'm still a mess but you hold on
Don't know just why you do
But I know I'm better with you
But I know I'm better with you
But I know I'm better with you
Jesse McCartney's song "Better with You" is a touching love song that touches upon the difficulties of life and the importance of having someone to share it with.

The chorus showcases the main message of the song, "But I know it's better with you." The lyrics describe the feeling of being lost and alone before finding the love and support of another person. The verses allude to the idea that everyone faces hardships and struggles, but having someone to share those difficult times with can make all the difference. The line "Wherever you are, it's never as dark" highlights the idea that the presence of love and support can act as a guiding light in times of darkness.
The powerful lyrics and upbeat melody of "Better with You" make it a chart-topping pop song with a message of hope and unity. The song was received well by critics, and has remained a top song on music charts around the world since its release in 2018.
