There's no combination of words
I _____ put on the back of a postcard
No song that I ______ sing
But I ____ try for your heart
Our dreams, and they are made out of real things
Like a, shoebox of photographs
With sepiatone loving
Love is the answer,
At least for most of the questions in my heart
Like why are we here? And where do we go?
And how come it's so hard?
It's not always easy and
Sometimes life ___ be deceiving
I'll tell you one thing it's always better when we're together

[Chorus:]
MMM it's always better when we're together
Yeah, we____ look at them stars when we're together
Well, it's always better when we're together
Yeah, it's always better when we're together

And all of these moments
Just ______ find their way into my dreams tonight
But I know that they'll be gone
When the morning light sings
And brings new things
For tomorrow night you see
That they____ be gone too
Too many things I have to do
But if all of these dreams _______ find their way
Into my day to day scene
I_____ be under the impression
I was somewhere in between
With only two
Just me and you
Not so many things we got to do
Or places we got to be
We_____ Sit beneath the mango tree now

It's always better when we're together
Mmmm, we're somewhere in between together
Well, it's always better when we're together
Yeah, it's always better when we're together

MMmmmm MMMmmmm Mmmmmm
I believe in memories
They look so, so pretty when I sleep
Hey now, and when I wake up,
You look so pretty sleeping next to me
But there is not enough time,
And there is no, no song I _____ sing
And there is no, combination of words I _______ say
But I ______ still tell you one thing
We're better together.
