The Decemberists - Make You Better lyrics

rate me

(Verse)

I want you, thin fingers

I wanted you, thin fingernails

& when you bend backwards

I wanted you, I needed ya

Oh oh, to make me betta

I'll love you in springtime

I lost you when summer came

& when you pulled backwards

I wanted to, I needed 2

Oh oh, to make me betta

Oh oh, to make me betta

(Chorus)

But we're not so starry eyed anymore

Like the perfect paramour ya were in yo letters

& won't it all just come around to make ya

Let it all unbreak ya 2 the day you met 'er

But it'd make you betta, it'd make you betta

(Verse 2)

I sung you your twinges

I suffered you your tattletales

& when you broke sideways

I wanted you, I needed you

Oh oh, to make me betta

Oh oh, to make me betta

(Chorus)

But we're not so starry eyed anymore

Like the perfect paramour ya were in yo letters

& won't it all just come around to make ya

Let it all unbreak ya 2 the day you met 'er

But it'd make you betta, it'd make you betta

(Bridge)

& all I wanted was a sliver 2 call mine

& all I wanted was a shimmer in yo shine

2 make me bright

(Chorus)

But we're not so starry eyed anymore

Like the perfect paramour ya were in yo letters

& won't it all just come around to make ya

Let it all unbreak ya 2 the day you met 'er

But it'd make you betta, it'd make you betta
