[Verse 1] Practiced hello in the bathroom glass Three little words and a whole hour passed You caught me counting the cracks in the floor Said, "You gonna stand there all night by the door?" I had a speech with a perfect end Lost every line when you took my hand [Pre-Chorus] My mouth's a traffic jam My feet have other plans You laugh, the record turns Guess I don't need those words [Chorus] We're better when we move When I stop trying to look so cool One step wrong, then you make two We're better when we move Let the bass get there before I do Nothing to prove, just me and you I can't talk smooth, but I know what's true We're better when we move [Verse 2] Your jacket's hanging on the back of a chair My careful haircut's got its hands in the air You spin me out and I miss the turn Some kinds of lessons I like to learn I used to leave before the lights came on Now I'm asking for another song [Pre-Chorus] No clever thing to say You like me anyway The room can spin around I'm finally here right now [Chorus] We're better when we move When I stop trying to look so cool One step wrong, then you make two We're better when we move Let the bass get there before I do Nothing to prove, just me and you I can't talk smooth, but I know what's true We're better when we move [Bridge - intimate solo vocal and grand piano] Tomorrow I might find the perfect line Tonight your hand fits right in mine [Instrumental interlude - live orchestra, no vocals] [Final Chorus] We're better when we move When I stop trying to look so cool One step wrong, then you make two We're better when we move Let the bass get there before I do Nothing to prove, just me and you I can't talk smooth, but I know what's true We're better when we move [Outro] One step wrong, then you make two Better when we move
