American Songs - Best Of Intentions lyrics

rate me

I had big plans for our future

Said I'd give you the whole world somehow

I tried makin' good on that promise

Thought I'd be so much further by now

Never could build you a castle

Even though you're the queen of my heart

But I've had the best of intentions from the start

Now some people think I'm a loser

'Cause I seldom get things right

But you make me feel like a winner

When you wrap me in your arms so tight

Please tell me you will remember

No matter how much I do wrong

That I had the best of intentions all along

Chorus:

I gave you a ring

And I promised you things

I always thought we'd do

But my best-laid plans

Slipped right through my hands

To show my love for you

And if you could read my heart

Then you'd know without exception

It was all with the best of intentions

Repeat Chorus

So here I am asking forgiveness

And praying that you'll understand

Don't think I take you for granted

Girl, I know just how lucky I am

Though you deserve so much better

You won't find devotion more true

'Cause I've had the best of intentions

Girl, I've had the best of intentions

Yes, I've had the best of intentions loving you.
