I grew up running from the best of me And I'm still not sure just who I am supposed be So hold me again before I fall Hold tight Hold tight I hung back in the shadows and periphery And you took my hand through the bright lights when they blinded me You kissed me again You pulled me in close You smiled So I smiled 'Cause everything's better as soon as you're next to me I know I fall apart, but you fix me with your heart Everything's better You're there in the fight with me And when I fail to start, you fix me with your heart I grew up trying to hit light speed But I lost my nerve when the big kids kicked it out of me You saved me the sin of getting lost in my mind, my mind 'Cause everything's better as soon as you're next to me I know I fall apart, but you fix me with your heart Everything's better You're there in the fight with me And when I fail to start, you fix me with your heart Ooh Ooh Ooh You're fearless in defeat You're a dancer in the street And you look the deepest darkness in the eye We missed the last bus home Found a park bench for a throne And the stars stayed out tonight And everything's better Everything's better Yeah, everything's better as soon as you're next to me I know I fall apart, but you fix me with your heart Everything's better You're there in the fight with me And when I fail to start, you fix me with your heart Ooh Ooh I'm better with you Ooh Ooh I'm better with you
