I shouldn't be laughin' when you're makin' a joke
The nail in the coffin, you have that first bit of hope
Twist the knife, you've got me set in stone
You'll ruin my life, I know, I know

But I don't know better than to love you
I don't know better than to try
I just know when I look at you, it's not for me to decide
I see us together, and I don't know better

My head's on your shoulder, and my words in my throat
After six months of crying from the last time we spoke, but
I don't mind that you've got me predictable, this
This won't end right, I know, I know

But I don't know better than to love you
I don't know better than to try
I just know when I look at you, it's not for me to decide
I see us together, and I don't know better

Well, maybe there's nothin', nothin', nothin', nothin'
Nothin' that's better than you
Could you just give me somethin'
somethin', somethin', somethin'
Somethin' to hold on to?
'Cause I'll hold onto you forever
I don't know better
