The Best Thing For Me - Julie Doiron & Wooden Stars

When you look so good, the pain in your face doesn't show When you look so good and baby, you don't even know When the world is ours but the world is not your kind of thing Full of shooting stars, brighter as they're vanishing Oh you've seen enough to know it's children who teach You're still free enough to wake up on a bed or a beach You're the best thing about me The best thing that ever happened a boy You're the best thing about me I'm the kind of trouble that you enjoy You're the best thing about me The best things are easy to destroy You're the best thing about me The best thing about me I been crying out: How bad can a good time be? Shooting off my mouth, that's another great thing about me I have everything but I feel like nothing at all There's no risky thing for a man who's determined to fall You're the best thing about me The best thing that ever happened a boy You're the best thing about me I'm the kind of trouble that you enjoy You're the best thing about me The best things are easy to destroy You're the best thing about me Why am I Why am I walking away? (Walking away) Why am I walking away? I can see it all so clearly I can see what you can't see I can see you love her loudly When she needs you quietly You're the best thing about me The best things are easy to destroy You're the best thing about me Why am I Why am I walking away? (Walking away) Why am I walking away?

I'm as happy as I can be 'Cause I'm allergic to tragedy The doctor said something's wrong with me The smile on my face has no remedy So, baby, don't say no Come on and just say yes You know it's time to keep it simple Let's take a chance and hope for the best Life is short, so make it what you wanna Make it good, don't wait until mañana I think I'm cool 'cause your name's on this heart shaped tattoo The best thing about me is you Our cryin' day's are now history (history) I had a change of philosophy (philosophy) I take each day as it comes to me And I won't take myself all that seriously So, baby, don't say no Come on and just say yes You know it's time to keep it simple Let's take a chance and hope for the best Life is short, so make it what you wanna Make it good, don't wait until mañana I think I'm cool 'cause your name's on this heart shaped tattoo Now the best thing about me is you It's you Oh, the best thing about me is you Now the best thing, the best thing Oh, yes it is It's true Take off your shoes, lay back, and take a load off Give me your blues, let me love it away Nothing to lose, so don't act like such a grown up Stay out all night in the moonlight with me Don't say no, don't say no Come on and just say yes You know it's time to keep it simple Let's take a chance and hope for the best Life is short, so make it what you wanna Make it good, don't wait until mañana I think I'm cool 'cause your name's on this heart shaped tattoo Now the best thing about me is you It's you Now the best thing, the best thing, the best thing About me is you Now the best thing about me is you The best thing about me is you The best thing about me is you The best thing about me is you

If I could only read your mind Then I could be the one you need I'm really good at taking care of everybody else but me Maybe if I act real nice Maybe if I smile real big Maybe I could change the shape of who am 'til I fit in I guess I lost myself Trying to be somebody else So I'll sing a song that only I can sing A melody nobody knows but me A million things I could pretend to be Maybe best thing I can be is me Maybe the best thing Maybe the best thing Maybe the best thing I can be is me If I ever show my face Nothing left to hide behind Would anybody stay right here with me no matter what they find It's easier to shut my mouth It's easier to just agree To put my heart inside a box Turn the lock and hide the key I guess I lost myself Trying to be somebody else So I'll sing a song that only I can sing A melody nobody knows but me A million things I could pretend to be Maybe best thing I can be is me I have something to say I can't keep it inside The world needs more people who are truly alive And I have a voice And I have a name This life is a gift It's not a mistake Oh, I have to believe I'm not a mistake So I'll sing a song that only I can sing A melody nobody knows but me A million things I could pretend to be Maybe best thing I can be is me Maybe the best thing Maybe the best thing Maybe the best thing I can be is me Maybe the best thing Maybe the best thing Maybe the best thing I can be is me

Monkeys on their back, a scorpion's on yours You know their hearts are black, they can't follow the course You'd only take a life, that was already over to save another No guns or bombs or knives Your hammer, your hands, your heart is full And you, and you Are the best thing that's ever happened to me And you, and you Are the best thing that's ever happened to me And you, and you Are the best thing that's ever happened to me And you, and you Are the best thing that's ever happened to me They say you have no name, they say you show no signs And who you are by the day, isn't the same in the night But you'd only take a life, that was already over to save another No guns or bombs or knives Your hammer, your hands, your heart is full And you, and you Are the best thing that's ever happened to me And you, and you Are the best thing that's ever happened to me And you, and you Are the best thing that's ever happened to me And you, and you Are the best thing that's ever happened to me

Everyday with You, Lord Is sweeter than the day before Everyday with You, Lord Is sweeter than the day before Every morning' I will worship, every evenin' I'll adore 'Cause every day with You is sweeter, Sweeter than the day before. What a privilege to know You Like I know You To be loved like You love me What an honor to worship Truly worship From this heart that You have freed From the rising of the sun To the setting of the same Everyday with You, Lord Is sweeter than the day before Everyday with You, Lord Is sweeter than the day before Every morning' I will worship, every evenin' I'll adore 'Cause every day with You is sweeter, Sweeter than the day before What a wonder to live life Really live life Overcoming anything What a reason to lift up Freely lift up Every day my everything From the rising of the sun To the setting up the same Everyday with You, Lord Is sweeter than the day before Everyday with You, Lord Is sweeter than the day before Every morning' I will worship, every evenin' I'll adore 'Cause every day with You is sweeter, Sweeter than the day before

All that I can think about is fall days Winter snows and summer riding on my own I am in my bed, cover up your head on Da ra da ra And you're gone And you're gone and I know And I'm glad And I'm glad and I hope you'll find the one Da ra da ra And you're gone And you're gone and I know And I'm glad And I'm glad and I hope you'll find the one

It's been a long long winter Don't remember them this cold Not even the prank calls Are helping to pass the time anymore So take away my guitar Take away the chords Take away the shitty links until You better take my heart And don't bother calling back No really, don't bother unless you know Spring has come to me for good Takes almost an hour to warm myself most times There aren't enough blankets without you here And now I wonder why I bother anyway So give me all the warmth Give me all your smiles Give me all the sunshine baby And give me back my heart And I hope you think to call me When you're here it is raining But I know Spring won't come to me so soon But maybe we'll be ready to see you

This will be the last time This will be the last time This will be the last time This will be the last time Anyone is pretty when she smiles I mean that she's smiling like she's laughing Anyone is pretty when she smiles Me, I'm only pretty when I'm crying Maybe that's how it works for me Maybe that's how it works for me

I don't want to go to bed tonight Angry for the second time I just want to look into your eyes I just want to Got in bed and closed my eyes real tight Waiting for you to shut out the light And you didn't even say goodnight And you didn't even Wreckless restless feeling I'm unsure Trusting anybody anymore And sometimes when I am so unsure What difference, anyway
