best i'll ever be lyrics

Oh, I miss you
I miss being overwhelmed by you
And I need rescue
I think I'm fadin' away

But I keep thinkin'
That you'll wake me up with a whisper in my ear
I keep hopin'
That you'll sneak in my room

So I wait and I wait
And I run old scenes through my tired head
Of the days that we laid by the school and said forever
"Was that the best I'll ever be?"

Oh, I miss you
I miss talkin' all night long with you, yeah
And I need this to
Find a way to your home

Oh, my love
Can you hear me?
Have I been hoping loud enough?
Wishing hard enough?
Can you see me
When I'm asleep all alone, alone?

So I wait and I wait
And I run myself in the same old circles
I sit and I stare
And I run old scenes through my tired head
Of the days that we laid by the school and said forever
"Was that the best I'll ever be?"

I can't keep my hands from shakin'
I'm stumblin' through the wreckage again
But you're gone

So I wait and I wait
And I run myself in the same old circles
I sit and I stare
And I run old scenes through my tired head
Of the days that we laid on our backs and said forever
"Oh, was that the best I'll ever be?"

Was that the best I'll ever be?
Oh, was that the best I'll ever be?
