The Best One

Someday I will die and 
I'll leave you alone.
Don't let the grief haunt you, 
don't change what you know. 
Keep sight on your goals
and you follow your dreams.
The one thing I ask is please,
don't forget me.

Remember our laughter,
forgive my mistakes.
Don't cry for me, Baby, 
I'll stand here and wait. 

And when you feel the wind 
softly blow through your hair
give me a smile, it means that 
I'm right there.

The seasons may turn and the tide rolls on
but that doesn't mean that our story is done.
I'll live on through you, darling, 
so give us a lifetime together.
May this story we're writing be known 
as the best one ever. 

You're a line of the song 
that plays deep in my heart.
Every beat keeps the time 
that we've spent stuck apart.
You're the sun setting low
at the end of the day.
Not a mile, tear or year 
could take that away.

My memories may fade 
as my hair turns gray
but your soul is ingrained in mine 
and that will 
never change. 

The seasons may turn and the tide rolls on
but that doesn't mean that our story is done.
I'll live on for you, Baby,
I'll give us a lifetime together.
May this story we're writing be known
as the best one ever. 

And when it's your time to join me on this side
we can sit on this bench here and just reminisce.
Until then, I've got work to do, one thing I promise you,  
It's only beginning, I'll give us a lifetime worth living. 

The seasons may turn and the tide rolls on
but that doesn't mean that our story is done.
I'll live on for you, Baby,
So give us a lifetime together.
May this story we're writing be known
as the best one ever. 

You're Soooo Ridiculous.


The only thing that hurts worse than an
ex man
is running in to your ex
best friend
with her latest knight in shining armor standing by her side,
poor fool doesn’t even know he’ll be replaced by Friday night.

And there’s not enough time to
turn away
so we’re both standing here with no words
to say
because we said them all a month ago, now one of us just needs to go,
but I can’t find my feet and you’re just standing, staring.

And I sound so insecure when I ask if you’ve been thinking of me.
And you sound so immature when you laugh like I’m just so

Ridiculous!
This is just
ridiculous!
We’re both much
better than this.
And I can’t even resist
saying how much I detest
how you’re so
ridiculous.

I know it’s probably best to just
let this go
but there’s a few more things I’d like you
to know.
Like how I was kind of thinking what I said when I was drinking
was a little condescending but it wasn’t meant offensive.

But maybe I was just out
of line
for trying to tell you I
wasn’t fine.
You swore that you were always there, I guess you didn’t really care
and now we’re both still standing here, just standing, staring.

And you seem so cavalier when you roll your eyes and turn away and
then I sound so insincere when I ask why we are acting

Ridiculous!
This is just
ridiculous!
We’re both much
better than this.
And I can’t even resist
saying how much I detest
how you’re so ridiculous.

Oh, I guess some bridges are meant to be burned,
There's lessons to learn.
And I can't be concerned with trying to earn 
a chance at forgiveness
when we both lit our matches.
