The Best

Baby you were my everything

You’re all I ever wanted

Tell me how I can’t sing

Or put a ring to flaunt it

And when you fall

I’m right there to pick you up

Brush your shaky knee off

With my hand and lift you up

I see a smile light your eye

And your egos cut

And we say the same thing

Every single time

We say that we are the best

Only we have passed our test

A tribute to the rest

The rest I never had

I guess I’m kind of glad

Why wrestle with the sad

You’re still the best I ever had

The best I ever had.
