The Starkweather Boys - The Best of You lyrics

I stole my fortune long ago Mining colour from the ground And since indulged In finer things its true I've been received by royalty Pa**ed every peer review But I could never get The best of you I'd sailed the seven seas And seen the wonders Of the world I've owned great works of art And precious j**els But at night, I toss and turn Inside a cold and lonely room For I could never get The best of you I had a map to paradise In the comfort of your smile Another treasure I put on display But one wrong turn And I miss my Destination by a mile The object of my search Just slipped away I swear to you, this day I'd trade in every part of gold The land and ... I'd hand away the best of Everything I could bestow If I could only get The best of you I had a map to paradise In the comfort of your smile Another treasure I put on display But one wrong turn And I miss my Destination by a mile The object of my search Just slipped away I'll search away, the last Remaining hours of my life To find the shining light Of love that's true And sweep away the shadows From the corners of my mind If I can only get The best of you If I can only get The best of you
