Every night I'm lyin' in bed

holdin' you close in my dreams,

thinkin' about all the things that we said

and comin' apart at the seams.

We try to talk it over but the words come out too rough.

I know you were tryin' to give me the best of your love.



Beautiful faces and loud empty places,

look at the way that we live.

Wastin' 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.



O-O-O-OH SWEET DARLIN' you get the best of my love

YOU GET THE BEST OF MY LOVE

O-O-O-OH SWEET DARLIN' you get the best of my love

YOU GET THE BEST OF MY LOVE



I'm goin' 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 mornin' I wake up and worry

what's gonna happen today.

You see it your way and 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.



O-O-O-OH SWEET DARLIN
