Better
Embracing Love's Bittersweet Dance
Lyrics
Hope I only leave good vibes on your living room floor
Expressing a desire to leave positive memories or emotions in the shared space.
It hurts so bad that I didn't when you asked for more
Regretting not providing more when requested, causing emotional pain.
Your dad probably loves me more than he ever did now

'Cause I finally got up

Yeah, we're finally knocked down
Acknowledging setbacks or challenges but finding a positive perspective.
Yeah, sometimes it's better that way
Asserting that sometimes it's better to end things for the well-being of both parties.
Gotta let it go so your heart don't break
Advocating for letting go to prevent heartbreak.
'Cause I love you
Expressing love for the listener.
Yeah, baby, I love you
Reaffirming love for the listener.
Just this one time hear what I'm tryna say
Requesting the listener to listen to the speaker's perspective just once.
Know you might not feel quite the same way
Acknowledging that the listener may not reciprocate the same feelings.
But I love you

I tell you, I love you

Or I'll say goodbye while it's right

Can we save tears in your eyes?
Pondering if it's possible to avoid causing pain and tears.
I'm making you cry
Admitting to causing emotional distress.
Why wait to hate, can we save love?
Questioning the delay in choosing love over hatred.
I fell in, I'm falling, I'm for you
Expressing a deep emotional connection or attachment to the listener.
I can't let you fall through the floor too
Fearing the listener's potential fall and wanting to prevent it.
It's a gamble to take any more of you
Considering the risks of investing more in the relationship.
(It's a gamble to take take more you)
Reiterating the uncertainty and risk in continuing the relationship.
Still in my mind sometimes, I must admit it
Admitting that thoughts of the listener linger in the speaker's mind.
Like it's a crime on trial, I got acquitted
Comparing the lingering thoughts to a trial and asserting innocence.
Me and you wasn't meant, we wasn't fitted
Acknowledging that the speaker and the listener are not compatible.
Like it's a glove, I hated to admit it
Comparing the relationship to a glove that doesn't fit but is hard to admit.
'Cause obviously we go back
Highlighting the history shared between the speaker and the listener.
So why would we ruin that?
Pondering the rationale behind jeopardizing a valuable connection.
In too deep, we're rearranged

Now you wanna ask for names

We can't let this fruit go bad
Expressing a desire not to let the relationship deteriorate.
Sayin' things we can't take back
