The Best Of You

Memories are the only things that time can't take away
You read a book, you write a song, the time's been spent
But in your mind the story still remains
The song plays on

Memories can get the best of you, they can turn you inside out
Just when you least expect 'em to and times when I'm alone
I think of things we've done and then I laugh right out loud to myself
Sometimes I fool myself

How could you possibly know?
How could you possibly see?
Yes, and how could you possibly know
That the best of you has got the best of me?

Good and bad take it all in stride
But I'd be lying if I said, I didn't you here beside me
When it took so long to find you
Now I just can't let you go, can't let you go
