Best Thing

We talked right into the morning
Our sweaty palms met in an outline
Our shaking bones would cause our skin to touch
And the cold night wouldn't feel so much

Our bodies shivered from the fastness
I stared right into your brown-eyed vastness
Right then I felt your body weighed me down like an anchor

You are the best thing
I hear the breeze through the trees
All I think about is how your chest sings
The way you breathe when you speak when you're talkin' bout
all of your favorite things
You are my favorite thing

We drove all around your hometown
I was so scared to meet your family
But you assured me that they'd love me
and I didn't have a thing to worry about

I couldn't let go of your shoulder that night you told me I was beautiful
We sat outside that cinema dreading the loneliness next to come

You are the best thing
I taste the salt in the sea
All I think about is how your eyes leak
The way you breathe when you stare
When you wonder why you are the best thing
You are my favorite thing
