Better Than You
Lisa Keith Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Hey baby Its you I truly adore
I finally found the peace of never wanting more
Singin' a sweet song of who and where I belong
I see a vision of a love that's more than strong
I feel so fine, truly divine
My dream has come to life, hey yeah
You're always there on my mind
'Cause when I need two arms that can hold me tight
A tender loving kiss that can make it right
Someone to chase the darkness into the light
I know its true Baby, there's none better than you

'Cause my love is true, oh

Oh my dear I cant say the way that I feel
You're more than words, you're more than Pictures can reveal
Sugar is sweet but with you its hard to believe
There's nothing to compare, you're all I want and need
Eternally I'm gonna see all that love can be
Yeah yeah Heaven has given to me

'Cause when I need two arms that can hold me tight
A tender loving kiss that can make it right
Someone to chase the darkness into the light
I know its true Baby, there's none better than you

'Cause when I need two arms that can hold me tight
A tender loving kiss that can make it right
Someone to chase the darkness into the light
I know its true Baby, there's none better than you

And I know in time Our hearts will be together
I see your smile and I see forever

Baby, baby
And our love is true
Oh! There's no one better, oh
There's no one better than you

'Cause when I need two arms that can hold me tight
A tender loving kiss that can make it right
Someone to chase the darkness into the light




I know its true
Baby, there's none better than you

Now, in Sep 2023, I'm still listening
to this song I first heard & loved in 1993 !!
So many things have changed since then....
my parents have passed, my pet dogs too !!

Treasure every moment in your life everyday.
Never know when things will never be the
same...... loved ones passing on & soon you'll
be left almost alone as even friends grow old,
have their own lives or they also pass on.

I think & miss all those wonderful lovely
moments in my youth, & nothing will bring them
back again.

Love your mom & dad, your family & loved ones.
I found out too late, but my only hope is to
be with Jesus & my family one day again.

Oh..... my beloved mom loved this song so
much. God bless her , my dad & all loved ones.
I'm in tears now.
God bless.

it took me 26 years to find this amazing song. Lise Keith, you are simply the best

@DAVEJJR

Love, love this song! I’ll be 55 in October and miss the days when music was music and not just fabricated junk!

@leftyla

You do realize that the generations that came before you referred to this type of music as junk, right?

@reggiebirdhorse5796

Music like this not gonna happen !?!😮

@ZoomManny

This song brings back lots of wonderful memories. Such a happy and uplifting song. It's almost 30 years old and lovely as ever. Music those days are so much better.

@mattdawg83686

2021, and I’m still listening to this the same as I did back in 1993.

@reggiebirdhorse5796

Reminds me of 1994

@freedom4mealways

Three decades later, Lisa Keith symbolizes the 90s with this song. What a great decade!

@quietwatch

So under-rated! This is one of those very rare songs that I never get tired of hearing.
