Better With You

3LAU, Justin Caruso, Iselin

About the song

“Better With You” is a soft, honest look at love that stays even when things get messy. The song shows someone owning their mistakes, wishing they could take back hurtful words, and knowing deep down that life feels safer and warmer with the one they love. Even when emotions get heavy, they keep coming back because that connection means everything.

The second part shows the cycle they know so well — saying things they don’t mean, drifting apart for a moment, then finding their way back with a simple “sorry.” It’s not perfect, but the love feels worth fighting for. Being together makes the hard days easier, and being apart makes everything feel wrong.

In the end, the song turns gentle and hopeful. Lying under the same sky, sharing quiet moments, they see that things fall into place when they’re close. The message is clear and soft — no matter the mistakes, the fear, or the distance, life is better with the person they love.

Lyrics

Last night I was messed up, but I hope you will forget
Please do me a favor, erase the things I said
Pull me a little closer, take away the pain
Remind me I got everything to lose
I’m better with you
I’m better with you

I’m better with you
I’m better with you
I’m better with you
I’m better with you

Laying by your bedside, you feel so far away
Guess my quota’s full now; go ahead, make a mistake
You’ll say that you’re sorry, and I’ll say it’s ok
‘Cause I know I got everything to lose
I’m better with you
I’m better with you
You’ll say that you’re sorry, and I’ll say it’s ok
‘Cause I know I got everything to lose

I’m better with you
I’m better with you
I’m better with you
I’m better with you

I am by your side, nothing else will matter
When your eyes meet mine, we say it all in silence
Under the same sky, good things fall together
Now I know I’m better with you

I’m better with you
I’m better with you
I’m better with you
