Tom P Buckley

Lyrics

[Intro]
[strummed acoustic guitar, percussive backbeat]
[Chorus]
[male vocals enter, gritty tone]
You're the best I know
Oh, you're the best I know
[Verse 1]
If the mountains we went through each way
You're the best I know
[Chorus]
Oh, when I look up at you I feel the years
I've got to tell you I love you, dear
Keep your peace of mind, it's never far off
[Chorus]
[vocal intensity increases]
You're the best I know
You're the best I know
You're the best I know
You're the best I know
When the winter comes and the gas is cold
I don't care, you're the best I know
Oh
[Verse 2]
Everyone's up in the morning
Everyone, everyone's off work again
Everyone's smiling underneath
I just think of you then
[Chorus]
You're the best I know
You're the best I know
When the winter comes and the gas is cold
I don't care, you're the best I know
Hey, what does everybody need these days?
[Bridge]
[vocal grit increases]
When the love is custom-made of steel
Maybe you can feel it
Just let it float away
[Chorus]
[belting vocals]
You're the best I know
You're the best I know
When the winter comes and the gas is cold
I don't care, you're the best I know
Oh, baby won't you smile for me, oh
Won't you see the stars with me?
[Outro]
You're the best I know
[guitar fades out]
