Verse 1:
Every night I’m lying in bed
Holding you close in my dreams
Thinking about all the things that we said
And coming apart at the seams

Break:
We try to talk it over
But the words come out too rough

Refrain:
I know you were trying
To give me the best of your love

Verse 2:
Beautiful faces
And loud, empty places
Look at the way that we live
Wasting our time on cheap talk and wine
Left us so little to give

Break:
That same old crowd
Was like a cold dark cloud
That we could never rise above

Refrain:
But here in my heart
I give you the best of my love

Chorus:
Oh sweet darling
You get the best of my love
Oh Sweet darling
You get the best of my love

Bridge:
I’m going back in time
And it’s a sweet dream
It was a quiet night
And I would be all right
If I could go on sleeping

Verse 3:
But every morning
I wake up and worry
What’s gonna happen today
You see it your way
And I see it mine
But we both see it slippin’ away

Bridge:
You know we always had each other baby
I guess that wasn’t enough

Refrain:
Oh, but here in my heart
I give you the best of my love

Chorus/Outro:
Oh sweet darling
You get the best of my love
Oh sweet darling
You get the best of my love
Oh sweet darling
You get the best of my love
Oh sweet darling
You get the best of my love
Oh sweet darling
You get the best of my love
Oh sweet darling
You get the best of my love
Oh sweet darling
You get the best of my love
Oh sweet darling
You get the best of my love
Oh sweet darling
You get the best of my love
Oh sweet darling
You get the best of my love
