This was probably the fastest song I’ve ever written so far. I didn’t have any lyrics written down, no concept, no title, nothing. I was just playing chords. And the chorus just started coming to me, and I got this ‘90s drum break and started chopping that up and fucking with that. And then I got the whole melody. And then I took out my iPhone-I was like, “I don’t want to forget this.” I voicemail mode it, and I thought I’d replace it later with another sound. Then I ended up actually using that sound. And it all just happened super quick. I feel like, in a way, it wrote itself.
1. I Like Me Better Lyrics:
- To be young and in love in New York City
- To not know who I am but still know that I’m good 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
- Lay 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
