Loved You Better Songtext
von Jonas Brothers

Three, four

You had this beautiful way about you
You had this want in your touch and softness in your eyes
I could be myself when I was around you
It scared me to death, but I never felt so alive
You said you pictured yourself growin′ old with me
Now I'm just a toxic heartbroken memory
Of some boy who can never give you what you need

I shoulda loved you better
But I couldn′t even love myself
Said that we're in this together
Then I didn't even try to help

When you needed me, I wasn′t there to get you through it all
I shoulda loved you better
Shoulda loved you better
Better, better, better


I know it′s late, and I know it's been some time
But I still think about the days when you were mine
But the years go fast, but the nights last long ′cause
It's hard to sleep when I′m not holdin' on to you
What a mess I′ve made, a mess I've made of you
Now I know it's far too late

I shoulda loved you better
But I couldn′t even love myself
Said we′re in this together
Then I didn't even try to help

When you needed me, I wasn′t there to get you through it all
I shoulda loved you better
Shoulda loved you better
(Better, better)

Oh, I let you down a thousand times
And left you on your knees
If you find someone, I hope he's everything that I can′t be

I shoulda loved you better
But I couldn't even love myself
Said that we′re in this together
Then I didn't even try to help

When you needed me, I wasn't there to get you through it all
I shoulda loved you better
Shoulda loved you better
Better, better, better
