My Best

Mm-mm-mm-mmmm-mm-mm 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 It's like a promised kept It's like you never left It's like you never left Mm-mm-mm-mmmm-mm-mm Ah-ah-ah-ahhh-ah-ah I know 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 that goes up past That leaves an ache It's never left 'Cause I gave you my best Ahhhh It's like you never left It's like you never left Ah-ah-ah-ahhh-ah-ah We scream and shout And try to make it last --- My Best - Vanessa Carlton
