The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Is she better than me?

Is she smart or real pretty?

Does she make you cry

Does she make you cry with laughter unlike I did?

Your conversations must be deep

Does she hold you in your sleep?

Does she know you’ll never want her

Does she know you’ll never want her like you never wanted me?

I really wanted you, baby

I still want you real bad

Tried to give you everything, tried to make you want me back

You’re not ready for someone to hold you down

Though with me you’d be flying, never on the ground

Won’t stop trying oh, won’t stop trying oh

‘Cause life’s better when you’re around

Life’s better when you’re around

Life’s better when you’re around me

Maybe you thought I didn’t want anything serious

With you, but I did what I thought

Did what I thought I had to do for you to wanna keep me with you

Thought if I said I wanted something more you’d see me differently

Not wanna see me no more

Not wanna see me no more

I really wanted you baby

I still want you real bad

Tried to give you everything, tried to make you want me back

You’re not ready for someone to hold you down

Though with me you’d be flying, never on the ground

Won’t stop trying oh, won’t stop trying oh

‘Cause life’s better when you’re around

Life’s better when you’re around

Life’s better when you’re around me

I really wanted you, baby

I always want what I can’t have

I really wanted you, baby

But you didn’t want me back

I really wanted you, baby

I always want what I can’t have

I really wanted you, baby

But you didn’t want me back, no you didn’t want me back

I really wanted you baby

I still want you real bad

Tried to give you everything, tried to make you want me back

You’re not ready for someone to hold you down

Though with me you’d be flying, never on the ground

Won’t stop trying oh, won’t stop trying oh

‘Cause life’s better when you’re around

Life’s better when you’re around

Life’s better when you’re around me

Life’s better when you’re around

Life’s better when you’re around

Life’s better when you’re around me
