The Best of Me Songtext
von Matt Pless

Lost myself in your wishing well
And you′re breakin' this heart of mine
Counting cracks in the wedding bells
Yes you′re breakin' this heart of mine
Your rain pours down on my parade
Like angels crying razor blades
Walkin hand in hand with a hand grenade
And you're breakin′ this heart of mine

Shotgun eyes with a bullet smile
And You′re breakin' this heart of mine
Give an inch and you′ll take a mile
Yeah you're breakin′ this heart of mine
This love for you I can't explain
I′ve only got myself to blame
Because life's a drag with this ball and chain
And you're breakin′ this heart of mine


And though it seemed like yesterday I was your only one
It′s plain to see our seasons come and gone
By giving you the best of me
The worst isn't what I′ve done
To think you thought that I could do no wrong

Scream and shout
Yeah you run your mouth
And you're breakin′ this heart of mine
Hang around like a thunder cloud
Yes you're breakin′ this heart of mine
The green eyed monsters sing the blues
I wait up every night for you
But the morning paper says I'm old news
And your breakin this heart of mine

And though it seems like yesterday I was your only one
It's plain to see our seasons come and gone
By giving you the best of me
The worst isn′t what I′ve done
To think you thought that I could do no wrong


Bottoms up and now knock em back
Yeah you're breakin this heart of mine
Got some rope and a railroad track
Yes you′re breakin this heart of mine
I taste his lips each time we kiss
And you just call me a hypocrite
Yeah I think it's time that we called it quits
Cause you′re breakin this heart of mine
