Lyrics

Mm-mm, yeah
Mm, mm
I know you been through some things
Hits that didn't hold you right
Love that felt conditional
Kisses with no fire
She didn't see your worth
Didn't know how deep you'd run
But I'm not her, baby
I'm the one
I see the way you tense up, mm-mm
Like you're bracin' for goodbye (yeah)
I'm not goin' nowhere, mm-mm
You don't have to fight
Let me show you something different
Let me love you out loud
I'm not here to hurt you, mm
I'm here to hold you down
I'm gonna treat you better
Than anybody before
Love you like you never
Had it knockin' at your door
I'll learn every inch of you
What you need and what you don't
Give you something steady
Something real, something grown
When I touch you, feel the difference
When I love you, you'll know for sure
I'm gonna treat you better
Better than before
Ooh
I'll listen when you're quiet, read between the lines
Kiss you slow in the kitchen, take my time
I'll make you feel wanted, not just when the lights go low
But in the middle of the mornin' before we even go
You ain't gotta prove nothin', you ain't gotta perform
With me, you can just be
Take me on, let me undo the damage
Let me rewrite your past
I'll give you something that's guiltless
I'm gonna treat you better (better)
Than anybody before (oh)
I love you like you never
Felt it in your core
I move the way you like
Slow it down to go
Give you something steady
Something you can trust to grow
When I touch you, you'll feel the difference
When I hold you, you won't want more
I'm gonna treat you better
Than before
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no
No, no, no, no
No game (no game), no prize (no prize)
No walkin' away all naive
No cold shoulders, no slipped orders
Just my hands and all they are
I'll be soft when you need it
Strong when you fall
And when it comes to lovin' you
I'll give it all
I'm gonna treat you better (better)
Than anybody before (oh)
Love you like you never (never)
And it's secure
I learned every part of you
Slow and sure
And when I lay beside you
You know you own
I'm gonna treat you better
Than before
