lyrics

The Best Part

If your mother and me were both lost ships at sea
and our collision made us capsize
Although we go down, knowing that we will drown,
I accept my fate, lost in her eyes

If a fire destroyed all the things we’ve enjoyed
and it threatened to snuff out our life

Some things I’ll regret, stuff I haven’t done yet,
but I’m proud that I made her my wife
Bad choices are my reality. Actions and words rarely agree
I don’t tell you enough, just no good at this stuff.
You two girls are the best part of me

When our terrible fights keep you up through the night
and our words cut us too deep to heal
We scream and we shout, as we slowly bleed out.
To be wed loses all its appeal
Just know I would not change one damn thing.
The pain and the joy entwining
Out of that came you both, call it real chance for growth
We were blessed with the best of offspring

One hundred and done, your mom hundred and one
‘cause she always preferred younger guys
Made our plans to embrace, as we stare into space
And shout, ‘here we go, one, two three die’

But life’s never easy as it sounds,
Though the ups make it worth all the downs
When the fates take me out, hope this song removes doubt
That my pride for you both knows no bounds

Bad choices were my reality. Actions and words rarely agree
I don’t tell you enough, just no good at this stuff
You two girls are the best part of me (tag 2 more *)
R. Bell

We love each other so you don’t have to…. ... more
