The Best Of Me |
I found a box of memories, |
Read a letter, |
Dropped a tear where you signed your name, |
And turning the page, |
Smearing the ink into «Love Always.» |
Girl, I always start this way a Nd then I end up in a bottle screaming out your name, |
Punching the walls, carrying on like I’ve gone insane, |
And in the mirror, |
I can see the man who just shook his head with no remorse, |
Watching an angel cry her tears, |
Stepping over my beers as you walked out the door. |
And there ain’t nothing like a memory, |
When it’s coming on strong like a hurricane. |
How can love like that just up and walk away? |
Killing me baby. |
It’s got me pouring up another drink, |
Bourbon’s hitting me hard like a freight train, |
With my back against the wall or on my knees, |
When the worst of your memory gets the best of me. |
Well, I remember it all too well, riding 441 down to Milledgeville, |
Crossing the bridge as the sun set on Lake Sinclair. |
I couldn’t wait to see you smile, |
But all I saw were tears in your pretty eyes and that said it all, |
It was all downhill from there. |
And I remember you saying, «Baby, please don’t give up on me.» |
Oh my baby, this stubborn man is gonna lie in the bed he made. |
'Cause there ain’t nothing like a memory, |
When it’s coming on strong like a hurricane. |
How can love like that just up and walk away? |
It’s killing me baby. |
It’s got me pouring up another drink, |
Bourbon’s hitting me hard like a freight train, |
With my back against the wall or on my knees, |
When the worst of your memory gets the best, the best of me. |
Baby, there ain’t nothing like a memory, |
When it’s coming on strong like a hurricane. |
How can love like that just up and walk away? |
Your killing me baby. |
Got me pouring up another drink, |
Bourbon’s hitting me hard like a freight train, |
With my back against the wall or on my knees, |
When the words to your memory gets the best, the best of me. |
