"The Better Half Of Me" lyrics

I took advantage of you
A stepping stone to my pedestal
When you had enough of it
I said, 'Fine. Good luck replacing this'
'Cause I seem strong and independent
Self sufficient, confident
And I'm like Mercury rising to the top so selfishly

The better half of me was you
I'm like a hive without a bee without you
I gotta find you, gotta remind you
That two is better than one

So please accept my apology
'Cause I'm feeling like a branch without its tree
It took me a fall to really see
That you're the catch I want to keep
'Cause I get weak thinking about you
Living without you life has no value
Baby, come back to me
'Cause you're the only missing piece

'Cause the better half of me was you
I'm like a hive without its bee without you
I gotta find you, gotta remind you
That two is better than one

Ooh, it took a little earthquake
To appreciate the stability you've given me so consistently
Yeah, yeah, yeah

The better half of me was you
I'm like a bird without its wings, without you
I gotta find ya, gotta remind you
That two is stronger than one
The better half of me, oh it's you
I'm like a heart without its beat without you
I've gotta find ya, gotta remind you
I promise you that I'm going to try to
I'm gonna love you because two is better than one
