Oh, sweet darlin’
But we both see it slippin’ away
Oh, sweet darlin’
You get the best of my love
Oh, sweet darlin’
But here in my heart
You get the best of my love, best of my love
Comin’ apart at the seams
But the words come out too rough
I’m goin’ back in time
You get the best of my love
Wastin' our time, on cheap talk and wine
Oh, sweet darlin’
You get the best of my love
Look at the way that we live
Oh, sweet darlin’
We try to talk it over
You get the best of my love
It was a quiet night
Holdin’ you close in my dreams
I know you were tryin’
And it’s a sweet dream

Left us so little to give
You know we always had each other baby
Every night, I'm lyin' in bed
Thinkin’ about all the things that we said
That we could never rise above, no
You see it your way and I see it mine
And I would be all right
But every mornin’, I wake up and worry
Oh, sweet darlin’
You get the best of my love
I give you the best of my love
But here in my heart
That same old crowd was like a cold dark cloud
You get the best, the best of my love

Oh oh, sweet darlin'
If I could go on sleepin’
What’s gonna happen today
I guess it wasn’t enough, no, no
Beautiful faces and loud empty places
I give you the best of my love
To give me the best of your love
