best of me lyrics

Drop those flowers
Back away slowly
You jumped in thinking
This was holy water
Oh well surprise, surprise

This is not a test
Welcome to the party
I've been on my best behavior
But I think it's time
You saw the other side

I'm a tough, tough game that no one can master
I'm a tall, tall tale when no one believes
I'm a long dark night with no morning after
Lucky you
You get the best of me

Brand new day
Honeymoon's over
Peace and quiet
Puts me in a coma anyway
It's just a waste of time

This is not a dream
Do you get the picture
I know I may seem peculiar
Baby gimme time
'Cause when I hit my stride

I'm a tough, tough game that no one can master
I'm a tall, tall tale when no one believes
I'm a long dark night with no morning after
Lucky you
You get the best of me
You get the best of me, oh yeah

I'm a tough, tough game that no one can master
I'm a tall, tall tale when no one believes
I'm a long dark night with no morning after
I'm a thundercloud when you're out at sea
And if you try to run, baby I can run faster and faster
Lucky you, oh baby
You get the best of me

You get the best of me
You get the best of me, oh yeah
You get the best of me
