About this song
Treat You Better is the lead single from Shawn Mendes' second studio album and was released on June 3, 2016. It climbed to number 3 on the iTunes charts within hours, partly thanks to Mendes encouraging fans to buy it directly from the Apple service. Teddy Geiger and Scott Harris co-wrote the lyrics, and Geiger also worked on production with Dan Romer.
What it's about
The song is Mendes singing to a romantic interest, promising to be a better partner than the one she already has. Some speculated it was about Camila Cabello, but both have insisted they are just friends.
