I want you. thin fingers
I wanted you. thin fingernails
And when you bend backwards
I wanted you. I needed you
Oh-oh. to make me better

I`ll love you in springtime
I lost you when summer came
And when you pulled backwards
I wanted to. I needed to
Oh-oh. to make me better
Oh-oh. to make me better

But we`re not so starry-eyed anymore
Like the perfect paramour you were in your letters
And won`t it all just come around to make you
Let it all unbreak you to the day you met her
But it`d make you better
It`d make you better

I sung you your twinges
I suffered you your tattletales
And when you broke sideways
I wanted you. I needed you
Oh-oh. to make me better
Oh-oh. to make me better

But we`re not so starry-eyed anymore
Like the perfect paramour you were in your letters
And won`t it all just come around and make you
Let it all unbreak you to the day that you met her
And it`d make you better
Did it make you better?
Make you better

And all I wanted was a sliver to call mine
And all I wanted was a shimmer in your shine
To make me bright

Cause we`re not so starry-eyed anymore
Like the perfect paramour you were in your letters
And won`t it all just come around and make you
Let it all unbreak you to the day you met her
But it`d make you better
It`d make you better
