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 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
Oh, it's better with you, yeah, yeah

I drift off to a dream and I 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

But 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 to anywhere you don't follow
I don't wanna be here when you're not with me
'Cause no matter what I do 

I don't wanna sing when you're not listening
I don't wanna to anywhere 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
It's better with you
