The Best Of You Lyrics

The Best Of You lyrics

(Kim Carnes/Eddie Reeves)



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



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
