  • I'll tell the world, I'll sing a song
    It's a better place since you came along
    Since you came along
    Your touch is sunlight through the trees
    Your kisses are the ocean breeze
    Everything's alright when you're with me

    And ahh, you're my favorite thing
    Ahh, all the love that you bring
    Well, it feels like I've opened my eyes again
    And the colors are golden and bright again
    There's a song in my heart, I feel like I belong
    It's a better place since you came along
    It's a better place since you came along

    I see the whole world in your eyes
    It's like I've known you all my life
    We just feel so right
    So I pour my heart into your hands
    It's like you really understand
    You love the way I am

    And ahh, you're my favorite thing
    Ahh, all the happiness you bring
    Well, it feels like I've opened my eyes again
    And the colors are golden and bright again
    And the sun paints the skies and the wind sings our song
    It's a better place since you came along
    It's a better place since you came along

    Now I'm alright
    Now I'm alright
    Everything's alright

    'Cause it feels like I've opened my eyes again
    And the colors are golden and bright again
    There's a song in my heart, I feel like I belong
    It's a better place since you came along
    It's a better place since you came along Writer/s: Rachel Platten, Sally Seltmann
