"A Better Word"

Released: N/A

"A Better Word" is a new song that was written and recorded during the summer of 2015. It's a heartbreaking piano ballad about wanting to be loved so much, you'd do anything - even propose. The song was never performed live and wasn't released until the album came out on October 23, 2015. The first 30 seconds snippet of the song was released on the French Amazon website in the night of October 23, and a longer snippet (1:30) was added to iTunes an hour later. It is yet to be confirmed if Josef will be performing the song during the Night Swim Tour, but the odds are good.

Lyrics

Love me
‘Cause that is all I really need
When all the rest of it is blown away
To not be ending it alone
So I’m begging with you love me
‘Cause I am down on bended knee
And fear is dripping over me
‘Cause I don’t want to see this end
I only wanna give you love

I’m over with a single glance
These heady nights, this heady trance
I’m looking for a better word
There must be one I didn’t learn
At once too much but not enough
Perhaps you’ll need to lie a little

Just love me
‘Cause that is all I really need
When all the rest of it is blown away
To not be ending it alone
So I’m begging with you love me
‘Cause I am down on bended knee
And fear is dripping over me
‘Cause I don’t want to see this end
I only wanna give you love

I wish there was a better word
Than this
Love, love me
Love, love me
