Vanessa Carlton — My Best

[Verse 1] 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 [Pre-Chorus 1] 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 [Verse 2] A sidewalk's path Leads me to you Though we don't look back We hold on to a truth [Pre-Chorus 2] 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 [Chorus 1] It's like a promise kept It's like you never left It's like you never left [Pre-Chorus 3] 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 [Chorus 2] It's like you never left It's like you never left [Outro] We scream and shout And try to make it last
