Comin’ apart at the seams
And I would be all right
I’m goin’ back in time
Left us so little to give
You get the best of my love
Songwriters: Glenn Frey, Don Henley, J D Souther
Wastin' our time, on cheap talk and wine
Oh, sweet darlin’
Beautiful faces and loud empty places
But here in my heart
You get the best of my love
It was a quiet night
I guess it wasn’t enough, no, no
Look at the way that we live
You get the best of my love
Every night, I'm lyin' in bed
Oh, sweet darlin’
Holdin’ you close in my dreams
You get the best of my love
I know you were tryin’
We try to talk it over
I give you the best of my love
But the words come out too rough
To give me the best of your love

Oh, sweet darlin’
But every mornin’, I wake up and worry
But we both see it slippin’ away
If I could go on sleepin’
You get the best of my love
You see it your way and I see it mine
I give you the best of my love
You know we always had each other baby
What’s gonna happen today
But here in my heart
That we could never rise above, no
Oh, sweet darlin’
Oh, sweet darlin’
You get the best, the best of my love
And it’s a sweet dream
That same old crowd was like a cold dark cloud
Oh oh, sweet darlin'
Oh, sweet darlin’
You get the best of my love, best of my love
Thinkin’ about all the things that we said
