The Best Of Me

[Verse 1] I found a box of memories Read a letter dropped a tear where you signed your name And turning the page smearing the ink and the love always Girl I always start this way Then I end up in a bottle screaming out your name And punching the walls, carrying on like I've gone insane In the mirror I can see the man that just shook his head with no remorse Watched an angel crying tears packing all of her things as she walked out the door [Chorus] Cause there aren’t nothing like a memory When it’s coming on strong like a hurricane How can love like that just up and walk away It’s killing me baby It’s got me pouring up another drink Bourbons hitting me hard like a freight train With my back against a wall or on my knees When the worst of your memory gets the best of me [Verse 2] Well I remember it all too well Riding 441 down to Milledgeville Crossing the bridge as the sun set on Lake Sinclair I couldn’t wait to see your smile but all I saw was tears in your pretty eyes That said it all, it was all downhill from there And I remember you saying baby please don’t give up on me Ah but baby this stubborn man is going to lie in the bed he made [Chorus][X2] [Outro] Whoa gets the best of me
