Best Of My Love - (Tribute to The Emotions)

Every night I'm lyin' in bed

Holdin' you close in my dreams

Thinkin' about all the things that we said

Comin' apart at the seams

We tried to talk it over

But the words come out too rough

I know you were tryin'

To give me the best of your love

Beautiful faces, loud empty places

Forget the way that we lived

Wasted our time on cheap talk and wine

Left us so little to give

That same old crown was like a bulldog plow

That we could never rise above

But here in my heart

I gave you the best of my love

Oh-oh-oh-oh, sweet darlin'

You get the best of my love

(You get the best of my love)

Oh-oh-oh-oh, sweet darlin'

You get the best of my love

(You get the best of my love)

I'm goin' back in time

And it's a sweet dream

It was a quiet night

And I would be alright

If I could go on sleepin'

But every mornin'

I wake up and worry

What's gonna happen today

You see it your way

And I see it mine

But we both see it slippin' away

You know we always had each other, baby

I guess that wasn't enough

Oh-oh-oh-oh, but, oh, sweet darlin'

You get the best of my love

(The best of my love)

Oh-oh-oh-oh, sweet darlin'

Every night and day

(You get the best of my love)
