lyrics

Bless the Best

You know you heard this song before
Didn’t you
Heard it as you were walking out the door
Following you
You know you heard my voice before
Didn’t you
Think it would always speak your name

You didn’t know
That the voice would change
You didn’t know
That I would speak so many other names
You didn't know
That the voice wouldn’t stay the same
You couldn’t know, you couldn't know, you couldn't know

I’ve never wrote this song before
The feeling’s new
There was so much that I did wrong
I’m not blaming you
Maybe the worst that we had
Was just the best that we knew

I didn’t know
That the fear could change
I didn’t know
That I would learn so many other ways
I didn’t know
That the fear wouldn’t stay the same
I couldn’t know, I couldn't know, I couldn't know

Oh but you were the one
You were the one I pinned it all on
You were the one
You were the one I pinned it all on

But in a moment’s time
I get so run down
In a moment’s time
The work calls me back up again
And in another place and another time
I held you
And in another way and another place
I will be held again

So bless the best
Of us
Bless the best
We had
Bless the best
Of us
It wouldn’t help to forget that now

In another moment
We’ll be laughing out loud again
In another moment we’ll be
Laughing aloud

Laughing aloud
We’ll be laughing again all night

You wouldn’t know
You wouldn’t know
You wouldn’t know it now
