The Best Of My Love (Album Version)

The Best Of My Love (Album Version) - Ray Conniff

Every night I'm lyin' in bed

Holdin' you close in my dreams

Thinkin' about all the things that we said

And comin' apart at the seams

We try to talk it over

But the words come out too rough

I know you were tryin'

To give me the best of your love

Beautiful faces and loud empty places

Look at the way that we live

Wastin' our time on cheap talk and wine

Left us so little to give

That same old crowd

Was like a cold dark cloud

That we could never rise above

But here in my heart I give you the best of my love

Oh sweet darlin' you get the best of my love oh

Sweet darlin' you get the best of my love

I'm goin' back in time

And it's a sweet dream

It was a quiet night

And I would be all right

If i could go on sleepin'

But every mornin'

I wake up and worry

What's gonna happen today

You see it your way

And I see it mine

But we both see it slippin' away

You know we always had each other baby

I guess that wasn't enough

Oh but here in my heart

I give you the best of my love

Oh sweet darlin'

You get the best of my love

Oh sweet darlin'

You get the best of my love

Oh sweet darlin' you get the best of my love

Oh sweet darlin' you get the best of my love

Best of my love
