Every night I'm lying in bed

Holding you close in my dreams

Thinking about all the things that we said

Coming apart at the seams

We tried to talk it over

But the words come out too rough

I know you were trying

To give me the best of your love



Beautiful faces, loud empty places

Look at the way that we live

Wasting our time on cheap talk and wine

Left us so little to give

That same old crowd was like a cold dark cloud

That we could never rise above

But here in my heart

I give you the best of my love



(Chorus) Oh, sweet darlin'

You get the best of my love

Oh, sweet darlin'

You get the best of my love



I'm going back in time and it's a sweet dream

It was a quiet night, and I would be alright

If I could go on sleeping



But every morning, I wake up and worry

What's gonna happen today?

You see it your way, I see it mine

But we both see it slippin' away

You know we always had each other, baby

I guess that wasn't enough, oh

But here in my heart

I give you the best of my love



(Chorus
