Vanessa Carlton - My Best Lyrics

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
