All That`s Best In You Lyrics

All That`s Best In You lyrics

Album: A Lifetime Burning



“Ok…This is all that’s best in you, a
song for Elizabeth”



You’ve grown so much, you’ve come so far

I never thought we’d end up here

You know I’ve seen this picture
before

Reminds me of when you were home



Sometimes you’re all
I see

Sometimes you’re all I feel



Wanted to tell you
goodbye

And know that you’re safe

Now that the pain is gone,

The love remains

Though all my faults turn out to be so true

I
couldn’t see…

All that was best in you

All that was best in you



Worked so hard it broke your heart

Robbed you of your smile that
would save the world

A friend now more for a friend I lost

A friend
that never left me unsure

I am sure



Wanted to tell you I
lied

Oh, I made mistakes

And when I failed in life it was you I
blamed

Though all my faces you could see right through

I couldn’t
see…

All that was best in you



You are my hope (I’m giving
in)

You are the ink under my skin

You are the day that I awake

You’d be the only chance I’d take

All I am and was before 

The
things I love and I adore

My handful of hope and a little more



Wanted to tell you I tried

To make it ok

With just one letter gone
I lost the name

Of that little boy smiling back at you

He couldn’t
see all that was best in you.



“That’s it”
