Better Than You
Heartbreak Harmony: Unraveling the Emotional Tale in Nathan Wilson's 'Better Than You'
Lyrics
When I told you I wanted forever
Expressing a desire for a lasting relationship or commitment.
You looked at me and said I do too
Partner responded affirmatively to the idea of forever.
The way you made me feel nothing was better
Describing a positive emotional impact, feeling that nothing could be better.
Of course that was to good to be true
Realization that the positive feelings were too good to be true.
And I guess you was lying every time you told me I Love You
Suspecting dishonesty in the partner's expressions of love.
Because I caught ya red handed mixing it up with somebody new
Discovering evidence of the partner being unfaithful with someone new.
So what did I do to make you wanna go and break my heart
Questioning actions that led to the heartbreak.
I always new that you would eventually tear us apart
Anticipating the eventual breakup, acknowledging it was expected.
Look at me and look at you
Reflecting on the stark contrast between oneself and the partner.
What was I thinking call me a fool
Admitting a moment of foolishness in the relationship.
Maybe some day I'll find somebody
Expressing hope for finding someone better in the future.
Better Than You
Desire to find a partner superior to the current one.
Don't know if I should quit or try and get ya back
Uncertainty about whether to give up or attempt to reconcile.
99 Percent of the time
Expressing a lack of affection most of the time.
I wouldn't even get a kiss goodnight
Not receiving affectionate gestures, particularly a goodnight kiss.
Damn thats sad
Expressing sadness about the lack of affection in the relationship.
And I just gotta ask
Pose a question regarding the reasons for the heartbreak.
What did I do to make you wanna go and break my heart
Reiteration of the query about the actions leading to the heartbreak.
I always new that you would eventually tear us apart
Acknowledging the expected outcome of the relationship.
Look at me and look at you
Reflecting on the differences between oneself and the partner.
What was I thinking call me a fool
Admitting a moment of foolishness in the relationship.
Maybe some day I'll find somebody
Expressing hope for finding someone better in the future.
Better Than You
Desire to find a partner superior to the current one.
So what did I do to make you wanna go and break my heart
Questioning actions that led to the heartbreak.
I always new that you would eventually tear us apart
Anticipating the eventual breakup, acknowledging it was expected.
Look at me and look at you
Reflecting on the differences between oneself and the partner.
What was I thinking call me a fool
Admitting a moment of foolishness in the relationship.
Maybe some day I'll find somebody
Expressing hope for finding someone better in the future.
Better Than You
Desire to find a partner superior to the current one.
Don't know if I should quit or try and get ya back
Uncertainty about whether to give up or attempt to reconcile.
