Best Lasts Forever

I feel like a sun without a sky
Feel like a socket without an eye
Feel like a house, but not a home
Just a dog without a bone

How can you wink without an eye?
Like a grievance, but with no cry
A house, not a home, and I don't know why
Just a pig without a sty

The best lasts forever... Ohh

Feel like a sail, but I've been slashed
A vigilante that's been unmasked
Feel like a raft, but not a ship
Sinking on this south facing tip

I know that before when you answered the door
I told you and the world to leave me

But the best lasts forever... Ohh
Together again, together again

Have you ever felt like a story untold
A catwalk model that's growing old
Hard to imagine what's more important
The rainbow the pot or the gold
I know that before when you answered the door
I told you and the world to leave me

Thinking about what it is that made you change
Was it the quarks, the dosh or the dames
When did I become so deranged
And think of the time when blood ran through your veins
When she looked as sweet as a candy cane
As she looks through the window pane
Through the window, pain and the rain
I say it again and again
The best lasts forever
The best lasts forever

The best lasts forever... Ohh

I know that before when you answered the door
I told you and the world to leave me

I've been on my knees on so many streets
Not just the ones in Dundee
Fell on my face, been a legless disgrace
Ten thousand laughing at me, but still

The best lasts forever... Ohh
