Nothing Better
By Travis Atkinson

I wish I’d never met you
I wish I’d never seen you because
Then I’d never know what I’m missing
Or how wonderful perfection was
And your smile, it’s oh so dreamy
If I were anyone else, oh I’d wish I could be me
Holding hands, interlocked
Not the normal way, but the one where your thumb’s on top, it’s
Unconventional, 3-dimensional
We’re not perfect, but we’ve got the potential
I don’t mean to unsettle, or be too sentimental
But if I tried to explain my love my words would be infinitesimal
They’d go on and on and on…
And oh, every time I see you, you know I get weak, you know I can’t sleep
And oh, I’m so happy just to see your face
Long fingers running through my hair
On a beach in Rio we quietly stare
At the stars above us, and the sand below us
The Atlantic whispers like it wants to know us
Like two magnets north & south
Your cherry lips attract my weary mouth
Your eyes are singing without a sound
It’s then I realize nothing better will be found…
Nothing better will be found…
(You’ll feel the power of love)
So now I’m glad that I met you
And every moment is just pure bliss
Dream fulfilling, so darn willing
You’re my greatest wish
You’re my greatest wish
You’re my greatest, God saved the best for latest
You’re my greatest wish
