Paroles: Vanessa Carlton. Heroes & Thieves. My Best.
We scream and shout and try to make it last
Though it didn?t work out, I don?t love you any less
My lover or friend, I won?t ever tell
Our secret's safe, an unspoken citadel
And in these broken times, well, it?s so easy to forget
so I sing to remind, upon my shoulder you can rest
'Cause I?ll always give you my best
A sidewalk's path leads me to you
Though we don?t look back, we hold on to a truth
And in these broken times I promise I will not forget
Though you?re not mine upon your shoulder I can rest
'Cause you always give me your best
It?s like I promised you
It?s like you never left
It?s like you never left
I know it?s been so long, I can't ever seem to forget
All it takes is a song and I could swear I hear your steps
Down the hall that goes up past that leaves an ache, it's never left
'Cause I gave you my best
It?s like you never left
It?s like you never left
We scream and shout and try to make it last
Though it didn?t work out, I don?t love you any less
My lover or friend, I won?t ever tell
Our secret's safe, an unspoken citadel
And in these broken times, well, it?s so easy to forget
so I sing to remind, upon my shoulder you can rest
'Cause I?ll always give you my best
A sidewalk's path leads me to you
Though we don?t look back, we hold on to a truth
And in these broken times I promise I will not forget
Though you?re not mine upon your shoulder I can rest
'Cause you always give me your best
It?s like I promised you
It?s like you never left
It?s like you never left
I know it?s been so long, I can't ever seem to forget
All it takes is a song and I could swear I hear your steps
Down the hall that goes up past that leaves an ache, it's never left
'Cause I gave you my best
It?s like you never left
It?s like you never left
We scream and shout and try to make it last
Carlton, Vanessa
