Lyrics to Best For You
So long again
To you, my friend
Where do you end
And I begin?
We've come so far
The closest of calls
We rise and fall
For nothing at all
I've been waiting for this moment to be open with you
Will you give it to the rhythm of the self that you knew?
It's too easy to believe that this was all of no use
Scratch the surface of the purpose for the life that you chose
'Cause I want the best for you
Do you want the best for me?
Yeah, I want the best for you
Do you want the best for me?
Beyond the sea
A memory
Of what used to be
Of you and me
It's gone too far
The closest of calls
We rise and fall
For nothing at all
You can blame me, but you do it to yourself, and you know
When you leave here, will you see where you could go on your own?
'Cause this hurting is a burden, but it's our cross to bear
Send me reeling from the feeling that you were never there
Girl, I want the best for you
Do you want the best for me?
Yeah, I want the best for you
Do you want the best for me?
Ooh, I see how you want me to
Be everything that you would need
But I won't make it through the night
It's true; I'll never be enough for you
'Cause I want the best for you
Do you want the best for me?
Yeah, I want the best for you
Do you want the best for me?
Do you want the best for me?
Do you want the best for me?
Do you want the best for me?
To you, my friend
Where do you end
And I begin?
We've come so far
The closest of calls
We rise and fall
For nothing at all
I've been waiting for this moment to be open with you
Will you give it to the rhythm of the self that you knew?
It's too easy to believe that this was all of no use
Scratch the surface of the purpose for the life that you chose
'Cause I want the best for you
Do you want the best for me?
Yeah, I want the best for you
Do you want the best for me?
Beyond the sea
A memory
Of what used to be
Of you and me
It's gone too far
The closest of calls
We rise and fall
For nothing at all
You can blame me, but you do it to yourself, and you know
When you leave here, will you see where you could go on your own?
'Cause this hurting is a burden, but it's our cross to bear
Send me reeling from the feeling that you were never there
Girl, I want the best for you
Do you want the best for me?
Yeah, I want the best for you
Do you want the best for me?
Ooh, I see how you want me to
Be everything that you would need
But I won't make it through the night
It's true; I'll never be enough for you
'Cause I want the best for you
Do you want the best for me?
Yeah, I want the best for you
Do you want the best for me?
Do you want the best for me?
Do you want the best for me?
Do you want the best for me?
