Better Next to You

Lyrics

[Verse 1] You save the corner seat for me And steal the sugar from my tea You laugh before the punchline lands Then draw a little heart on my hand [Pre-Chorus] I used to miss the best parts of the day Now every road turns your way [Chorus] Shamima, when you say my name The whole room feels a little less the same One smile and all my plans come loose I keep finding my way back to you Shamima, if you only knew Every little thing is better next to you [Verse 2] Your old blue scarf is in my car You point out shapes inside the clouds We make a feast from takeaway fries And talk until the kitchen light dies [Pre-Chorus] I used to miss the best parts of the day Now every road turns your way [Chorus] Shamima, when you say my name The whole room feels a little less the same One smile and all my plans come loose I keep finding my way back to you Shamima, if you only knew Every little thing is better next to you [Bridge] If the week runs long, if the train runs late I’ll be right there by the garden gate No grand words, no perfect view Just me, still choosing you [Final Chorus] Shamima, when you say my name The whole room feels a little less the same One smile and all my plans come loose I keep finding my way back to you Shamima, now you know it’s true Every little thing is better next to you [Outro] Better next to you Shamima, next to you
