Best Of My Love

The Eagles

Every night, I’m lying in bed
Holding you close in my dreams
Thinking about all the things that we said
And coming apart at the seams
We tried to talk it over
But the words come out to rushed
I know you were trying
To give me the best of your love
Beautiful faces in loud empty places
But kept the way that we lived
Wasting our time on cheap talking wine
Left us so little to give
That same old crowd
Was like a cold dark cloud
That we could never rise above
But here in my heart
I give you the best of my love
Oh, sweet darling
You get the best of my love
Oh, sweet darling
You get the best of my love
I’m going back in time
And it’s just eerie
It was a quiet night, and I would be all right
If I could go on sleeping
But every morning I wake up and worry
What’s going to happen today
You see it your way, and I see it mine
But we both see it slipping away
You know we always had each other
I guess it wasn’t enough
But here in my heart
I give you the best of my love
Oh, sweet darling
You get the best of my love
Oh, sweet darling
You get the best of my love
