Best I Could by Dan Mills

This song hit me like a ton of bricks. Just love it! I've sent a copy of it to all my closest friends bc I am so in love with it! "And I have lingered and I have lied, You couldn't stop me if you tried, And I never loved you like I should, But I did the best I could...I'm wiser then the boy I've been..."


Packed last night so she could leave today
Rolled out the sweaters from the hide-a-way
Cold as a corner when she starts to say
Babe, I never had a chance

Drove five miles past the reservoir
Hands out the window couldn't stand for more
Footsteps laughing from the basement door
I'm tired of the song and dance!!!!!

And I have lingered and I have lied 
But you couldn't stop me if you tried!

Slow cold walks on the bowery alone
Long fake talks on the telephone
Twenty-one dollars just to get me home
I'm cooking up a night of sin

Foggy visions on the street below
Big decisions with the people we know
I see silver sides just starting to show 
I'm wiser than the boy I've been 

And I never loved you like I should
But I did the best I could!!!

And I have lingered and I have lied 
But you couldn't stop me if you tried 
And I never loved you like I should
But I did the best I could
