Vanessa Carlton - My Best lyrics

rate me

We scream and shout and try to make it last

Though it didn't work out, I don't love you any less

My lover or friend, I won't ever tell

Our secrets safe

An unspoken citadel

And in these broken times, well, it's so easy to forget

So I sing to remind upon my shoulder you can rest

Cause I'll always give you my best

A sidewalk's path leads me to you

Though we don't look back, we hold on to a truth

And in these broken times I promise I will not forget

Though you're not mine upon your shoulder I can rest

Cause you always give me your best

Like a promise kept

It's like you never left

It's like you never left

And though it's been so long, I can't ever seem to forget

All it takes is a song and I could swear I hear your steps

Down the hall echoes a past

That leaves an ache, it's never left

Cause I gave you my best

Ohhhhh

It's like you never left

It's like you never left

We scream and shout and try to make it last
