I Like Me Better

Lauv

To be young and in love in New York City

Do not know who I am but still know I’m good as long as you’re here with me

To be drunk and in love in New York City

Midnight into morning coffee

Burning through the hours talking

Damn

I like me better when I’m with you

I like me better when I’m with you

I knew from the first time, I’d stay for a long time

’Cause I like me better when

I like me better when I’m with you

I don’t know what it is but I got that feeling

Waking up in this bed next to you, swear the room yeah

It got no ceiling

If we lay, let the day just pass us by

I might get to too much talking, I might have to tell you something

Damn

I like me better when I’m with you

I like me better when I’m with you

I knew from the first time, I’d stay for a long time

’Cause I like me better when

I like me better when I’m with you

Stay awhile stay awhile

Stay here with me

Stay awhile stay awhile, oh

Stay awhile stay awhile

Stay here with me

Right here with me

Yeah, yeah

I like me better when I’m with you

(yes, I do, yes, I do, babe)

I like me better when I’m with you

I knew from the first time

I’d stay for a long time

’Cause I like me better when

I like me better when I’m with you

I like me, I like me

Look who you made me, made me, oh no

Better when

I like me better when I’m with you
