Best Ones

(One, two, three, four)

The good nights
Don't have rainy blue eyes that wreck me without warning
They don't taste like wine and cigarettes and melt into the morning
They don't end up with me waking up with you
No, the good nights don't, but the best ones do

And the good songs
Don't get stuck inside my head long after they're over
They don't sound like lower Broadway with your head on my shoulder
They don't remember when I fell in love with you
No, the good songs don't, but the best ones do

The best ones come right outta nowhere
And you'd give anything to go there one more time
The best ones ain't always the last ones
But you know it when you've had one, and you're mine

And a good heart
Don't have doors with locks that it won't let me open
Don't slip away the closer I try to hold it
And sure, don't leave mine bruised and broke in two
No, a good heart don't, but the best ones

The best ones come right outta nowhere
And you'd give anything to go there one more time
The best ones are the hardest to forgive once
Yeah, you probably only get one, and you're mine
Yeah, you're mine

Yeah, the good nights
Don't have rainy blue eyes that wreck me without warning
They don't taste like wine and cigarettes and melt into the morning
They don't end up with me waking up with you
No, the good nights don't, but the best ones do
