Loved You Better (With Dean Lewis)

One, two, one

You had this beautiful way about you
You had this want in your touch and softness in your eyes
I could be myself when I was around you
It scared me to death, but I never felt so alive
You said you pictured yourself growing old with me
Now I'm just a toxic heartbroken memory
Of some boy who could never give you what you need

I should have loved you better
But I couldn't even love myself
Said that we're in this together
Then I didn't even try to help
When you needed me,
I wasn't there to get you through it all
I should have loved you better
I should have loved you better
Better, better, better

I know it's late and I know it's been some time
But I still think about the days when you were mine
And the years go fast, but the nights last long 'cause
It's hard to sleep when I'm not holding on to you
What a mess I've made, a mess I've made of you
Now I know it's far too late

I should have loved you better
But I couldn't even love myself
Said we're in this together
Then I didn't even try to help
When you needed me,
I wasn't there to get you through it all
I should have loved you better
I should have loved you better
(Better, better)

Oh, I let you down a thousand times
And left you on your knees
If you find someone
I hope he's everything that I can't be

I should have loved you better
But I couldn't even love myself
Said that we're in this together
Then I didn't even try to help
When you needed me,
I wasn't there to get you through it all
I should have loved you better
I should have loved you better
Better, better, better
