Lyrics & Translation

[English]

You know me

Now and then, I'm a mess

Please don't hold that against me

I'm a girl with a temper and heat

I know I can be crazy

But I'm not just a fuck-up, I'm the fuck-up you need

I don't hear nobody when you focus on me

Perfectly imperfect, yeah, I hope that you see

Tell me you see

'Cause I know that you've been thinking 'bout it

Don't leave

Shut your mind off and let your heart breathe

You don't need to be worried

I may not ever get my shit together

But ain't nobody gonna love you better

Don't go

What we have here is irreplaceable

No, I won't trade this for nothing

I may not ever get my shit together

But ain't nobody gonna love you better than me, yeah

Love you better than me (oh, whoa-oh)

In a room full of people with you

I don't see anybody else, no

When we fight, and you're right

So sorry, I make it just so difficult

But I'm not just a fuck-up, I'm the fuck-up you love

We ain't like nobody else, tell me so what

Perfectly imperfect, yeah, baby, that's us

Baby, that's us

'Cause I know that you've been thinking 'bout it

Don't leave

Shut your mind off and let your heart breathe

You don't need to be worried

I may not ever get my shit together

But ain't nobody gonna love you better

Don't go

What we have here is irreplaceable

No, I won't trade this for nothing

I may not ever get my shit together

But ain't nobody gonna love you better

Sitting in the living room

You look at me, I stare at you

I see the doubt, I see the love

I have and it is all for you

Let me wrap myself around you, baby

Let me tell you you are everything, you are

Losing my words, I don't know where to start

But baby, don't leave me

Shut your mind off and let your heart hear me

I won't trade this for nothing

I may not ever get my shit together

But ain't nobody gonna love you better

Don't leave

Shut your mind off and let your heart breathe

You don't need to be worried

I may not ever get my shit together

But ain't nobody gonna love you better

(There ain't nobody gonna love you better than me)

Don't go

What we have here is irreplaceable

No, I won't trade this for nothing

I may not ever get my shit together

But ain't nobody gonna love you better than me, yeah

...

Love you better than me
