Here I am stuck in a rut again 

Just me, a blanket, a memory and a pen 

I should probably go outside and find a place to play 

But it's not the same when you're fifteen hours away 





So I'll sit here a while and write a song 

But it feels all wrong 





Cause I don't wanna sing when you're not listening 

I don't wanna go anywhere that you don't follow 

I don't wanna be here when you're not with me 

Cause no matter what I do it's better with you 





I drift off to a dream and hold your hand again 

A picture perfect scene with your hair against the wind 

I pull you a little closer to fill the space between 

When our love's as old as time 

and our hearts are seventeen 



Cause I don't wanna sing when you're not listening 

I don't wanna to anywhere that you won't follow 

I don't wanna be here when you're not with me 

Cause no matter what I do it's better with you 





It's better with you 

It's better with you 





Cause I don't wanna sing when you're not listening 

I don't wanna to anywhere that you won't follow 

I don't wanna be here when you're not with me 

Cause no matter what I do it's better with you
