Love Takes the Best of You |
I didn’t know your mother |
But this is what I have been told |
That she cried and she cried |
When she gave you up at three days old |
She was from the countryside in Cambodia |
A farmer’s wife with too many mouths to feed |
She wanted you to see a better life |
Love takes the best of you, Love takes the best of you |
Love takes the best of you, Love takes the best of you |
Now you don’t look like me |
And baby we don’t look like you |
But our love is so complete |
It don’t matter eyes are brown or blue |
There are people in this world |
Who won’t understand this family |
We’ll protect you where we can |
Sometimes you’ll have to stand and help them see |
'Cause love takes the best of you, Love takes the best of you |
Love takes the best of you, Love takes the best of you |
Every night when I watch you sleep |
I want to watch over you forever |
Keep you safe with me |
And I wish I could promise you a beautiful world |
That would never break your heart |
Maybe that’s what we are here for |
We try and fix what comes apart |
Love takes the best of you, Love takes the best of you |
Love takes the best of you, Love takes the best of you |
