Two Is Better Than One

Artists: Boys Like Girls (feat. Taylor Swift)
Song Title: Two Is Better Than One

I remember what you wore on the first day
You came into my life and I thought, hey
You know this could be something

'Cause everything you do and words you say
You know that it all takes my breath away
And now I'm left with nothing

[CHORUS]
So maybe it's true that I can't live without you
Well maybe two is better than one
But there's so much time to figure out the rest of my life
And you've already got me coming undone
And I'm thinking two is better than one

I remember every look upon your face
The way you roll your eyes, the way you taste
You make it hard for breathing

'Cause when I close my eyes and drift away
I think of you and everything's okay
And finally now, we're leaving

[CHORUS]
And maybe it's true that I can't live without you
Well maybe two is better than one
But there's so much time, to figure out the rest of my life
And you've already got me coming undone
And I'm thinking two is better than one

I remember what you wore on the first day
You came into my life and I thought, hey

[CHORUS]
Maybe it's true that I can't live without you
Maybe two is better than one
There's so much time, to figure out the rest of my life
And you've already got me coming undone
And I'm thinking

Ooh I can't live without you
'Cause baby, two is better than one
There's so much time to figure out the rest of my life
And I've figured out with all that's said and done
Two is better than one


Heard this song over the airwaves on the day of its release a week and a half ago and fell instantly in love with it. (Official release date: October 19, 2009). I think it's beautiful. The simplicity of lyric, the childlikeness of thought, the innocence in tone – so unsuspicious and so eager to believe that as good as is seen, the best is yet to come. And that Time, there always is, aplenty.


I'm amazed at the way the song is so simply wide-eyed and ingenuous in its plain-speaking lyrics that capture the very essence of new love. Like seeing the beauty in having a better half for the very first time, loving everything that comes with it, and still not knowing what to really expect from it all. The only Certainty is a Beautiful Possibility – that maybe it's true. Maybe two is better than one.
