There's nobody better than you 
It took me a while till I knew 
But you knew from the start it was us, didn't you? 
It just took me a while till I knew 

Now I lay as I study a blank wall 
Would you spare me your voice if I call? 
'Cause you waited and watered my heart till it grew 
You just grew a little smarter too 

So I don't blame you if you want to 
Bury me in your memory, I'm not the girl I ought to be, but 
Maybe when you tell your friends, you 
Can tell them what you saw in me, and not how I turned out to be

There's some kind of burning inside me 
It's kept me from falling apart 
And I'm sure that you've seen what it's done to my heart 
But it's kept me from falling apart 

Now here I lay, as I wonder about you 
Would you just tell me what I'm meant to do? 
'Cause I've waited and watered my heart till it grew 
You can see how it's blossomed for you 

And I don't blame you if you want to 
Bury me in your memory, I'm not the girl I ought to be, but 
Maybe when you tell your friends, you 
Can tell them what you saw in me, and not the way I am 

And I don't mean to make your heart blue 
But could we be what we're meant to be? 
I'm just about to beg you please, and 
Then when you tell your friends, you can 
Tell them what you saw in me, and 
Not the way I used to be 

'Cause there's nobody better than you.
