The tenth and last song off of Love Letters, Metronomy’s fourth album. Mount sings about getting dumped in a foreign country and laying in a hotel room.
[Verse 1]
Never wanted, never needed
You said, "Honey, best be leaving"
If you want, I'll pack a bag
Foreign money in your hand
In your hand, baby
[Verse 2]
Tube of toothpaste, facial cleanser
Bar of soap and moisturiser
[Chorus]
But it gets better
But it gets better
Ooh, oh-oh
[Verse 3]
Never wanted, never needed
You said, "Honey, how you feeling?"
Hotel pillow's worth a try
If you want me, swing on by
Swing on by, baby
[Verse 4]
Mini bar with many choices
Bedside table, distant voices, oh
[Chorus]
But it gets better
But it gets better
Ooh, oh-oh
[Bridge]
Does it get better?
Does it get better?
Does it get better?
Does it get better?
[Verse 5]
Never wanted, never needed
You said, "Honey, best be leaving"
If you want, I'll pack a bag
Foreign money in your hand
In your hand, baby
