The Best of Me
I gave you the nickname someone else is saying now
I taught you to trust love when you didn't know how
Many conversations I spent to build you up
Thought I was kind and patient, guess it wasn't enough
I guess I was just a step in the process
This ain't a list of my regrets
Let's get to the top of the truth
Cause you're not with me (baby)
But I'm still with you
Just like in our picture
But I'm the one missing
You used the best of me
Now you're lovin' my love
On someone you love
Forgetting where it came from
Wait til' they see the rest of you
You're not the same one without a care in the world
You made me a promise that I still haven't heard
Was I in a bottle, did you take your wish and leave?
Maybe perfect timing, I proved that I could pick your pieces
Guess I was just a step in the process
This ain't a list of my regrets
Let's to the top of the truth
(The move's on you)
Cause you're not with me (baby)
But I'm still with you
Just like in our picture
But I'm the one missing
You used the best of me
Now you're lovin' my love
On someone you love
Forgetting where it came from
Wait til' they see the rest of you
Can't remember when I figured it out
Early on I had my doubts
How could I know for sure? (Could I know for sure?)
I arranged it, someone you can't ignore
So much easier when you yourself to blame
If I were you, I'd wonder how
Half my love feels the same
(Cause your) Cause you're not with me (baby)
But I'm still with you
Just like in our picture
But I'm the one missing
You used the best of me
Now you're lovin' my love
On someone you love
Forgetting where it came from
Wait til' they see the rest of you
Promise
I used you too
I taught you to trust love when you didn't know how
Many conversations I spent to build you up
Thought I was kind and patient, guess it wasn't enough
I guess I was just a step in the process
This ain't a list of my regrets
Let's get to the top of the truth
Cause you're not with me (baby)
But I'm still with you
Just like in our picture
But I'm the one missing
You used the best of me
Now you're lovin' my love
On someone you love
Forgetting where it came from
Wait til' they see the rest of you
You're not the same one without a care in the world
You made me a promise that I still haven't heard
Was I in a bottle, did you take your wish and leave?
Maybe perfect timing, I proved that I could pick your pieces
Guess I was just a step in the process
This ain't a list of my regrets
Let's to the top of the truth
(The move's on you)
Cause you're not with me (baby)
But I'm still with you
Just like in our picture
But I'm the one missing
You used the best of me
Now you're lovin' my love
On someone you love
Forgetting where it came from
Wait til' they see the rest of you

On someone you love
Forgetting where it came from
Wait til' they see the rest of you
Promise
I used you too
