Rick Springfield - The Best Damn Thing lyrics

You're the best damn thing and I'm the lucky one Gave you a reason to walk out on me that night And go looking for Mr. Right Cause I sure look like Mr. Wrong A deer in the headlights, I stood there and lied Made a ghost town of part of you Sat there and cried while I shot down the heart of you Couldn't decide if the end was the start of you I shut my mouth and waited In the mess that I created Write your name in the sky for the world to see Cause you're the best damn thing that ever happened to me We're still standing now, you didn't cut the run, ooh I was crying on the beach by the raging sea Just a small town broken down refugee Holier than thou, I caused the damage done You're the best damn thing and I'm the lucky one My mad season as vain as a bar room fight Remote as a satellite I was out of touch and out of time Too long in the spotlight So incomplete that I burned something beautiful Out on the street I was walking delusional Your body heat moves something immovable I close my eyes and pray, yeah From the mess that I have made Write your name in the sky for the world to see Cause you're the best damn thing that ever happened to me We're still standing now, you didn't cut the run, ooh I was crying on the beach by the raging sea A broken down battle ground refugee Holier than thou, I caused the damage done You're the best damn thing and I'm the lucky one I'm the lucky one I'm the lucky one I'm the lucky one I know that it hurt and sorry don't even do it A short pleated skirt and I jumped and I know I blew it Threw me a lifeline, I'm sticking like glue to it Held my breath and waited From the mess that I created Gonna write your name (gonna write your name) Gonna write your name (gonna write your name) Gonna write your name (gonna write your name) Gonna write your name Write your name in the sky for the world to see Cause you're the best damn thing that ever happened to me We're still standing now, you didn't cut the run, ooh I was crying on the beach by the raging sea Just a small town broken down refugee Holier than thou, I caused the damage done You're the best damn thing and I'm the lucky one
