Better Off

You say we're better off as friends
And I really thought I could pretend
But every time you say my name
It's like kerosene on the flame
You say we're better off as friends
And here you are calling me at the end of a long day
And here I am hoping in my car and heading your way

How could we be better off when
We're laughing like this every night?
How could we be better off when
Being with you feels so right?
When every almost touches lightning
You're scared to cross the line, and I am not
I'm not better off

Don't think we're better off alone
Not when we always sit this close
So go on and grab my hand
We don't have to make big plans
Don't think we're better off alone
'Cause here we are, you and me
At the end of a long day
And here I am, finally
Asking you to tell me

How could we be better off when
We're laughing like this every night?
How could we be better off when
Being with you feels so right?
When every almost touch is lightning
You're scared to cross the line, and I am not
I'm not better off

I hope you are not better off without me
I hope you're not better off alone
I hope you're notb better off without me
I hope you're not better off alone

I hope you are not better off without me
I hope you're not better off alone
I hope you're not better off without me
I hope you're not better off alone

'Cause how could we be better off when
We're laughing like this at midnight
How could we be better off when
Being with you feels so right?
When every almost touch is lightning
Scared to cross the line and I am not

I'm not better off
I'm not better off

How could we be better off when
We're laughing like this every night?
How could we be better off when
Being with you feels so right?
When every almost touches lightning
You're scared to cross the line, and I am not
Oh, I'm not better off
I'm not better off
