Lyrics Better for You - Empire Cast, Mario

Better for You

If I were witchu still
I would know how to back down
Buying you nice gifts
But he don’t get it
You can’t put a price on
A girl with her guard down, no
And your fragile heart, I’d handle with care
Maintain it on display up on a shelf
No, he doesn’t know how to keep you near
It ain’t no roses, no, you can’t buy love
It’s that one heart that can hold a love for two
And it’s that fairytale you never thought could come true
But when your soul feels heavy and you’re stuck like glue
I’m saying I’m better for you
Baby, I’m better for you
You…
I’m saying I’m better for you
Baby, I’m better for you
(I don’t know what to call it)
You…
I’m saying I’m better for you
Baby, I’m better for you
(Better for you)
I know your worst fears
Know what brings you tears
The study of you is
A subject that I wanna learn
(That I wanna learn)
A treasure, a rare prize
A diamond you can’t hide
Real love takes patience
Baby, take up all my time
And your fragile heart, I’d handle with care
Maintain it on display up on a shelf
No, he doesn’t know how to keep you near
It ain’t no roses, no, you can’t buy love
It’s that one heart that can hold a love for two
And it’s that fairytale you never thought could come true
But when your soul feels heavy and you’re stuck like glue
I’m saying I’m better for you
Baby, I’m better for you
You…
I’m saying I’m better for you
Baby, I’m better for you
(I don’t know what to call it)
You…
I’m saying I’m better for you
Baby, I’m better for you
(Better for you)
Tell me when you’ve decided what I’ve always known
Baby, please don’t fight it 'cause you know the truth
And if it takes a lifetime, I swear I will prove
That I’m better for you
Girl, I’m better for you
