Saw you again at the parlor
Crossing the walk with your lady
I caught your eye from afar off
I noticed she wore a ring

I found the smile-again-smile will
Wish it was genuine
I put away my desire
No more in love with you still
Look I'm moving on

Loved you, lost you, thought I'd give you all the best of me
We departed, broken hearted, I need to be free
What we had was oh so lovely
I'll swallow my pain
It's my time to find the best of me

Can't be the type to be begging
Can be the type to plea
My momma made me much wiser
What's mine will be just for me

I'm trying hard just to focus
I'm crying hard to sleep
Promise I'm glad your happy
When it's my time it will be
Look I'm moving on

Loved you, lost you, thought I'd give you all the best of me
We departed, broken hearted, I need to be free
What we had was oh so lovely
I'll swallow my pain
It's my time to find the best of me

Oh my, why have I been just so foolish all these times
(not realize) not realizin' in the beauty that your eyes once saw in mine
I guess it's time to find the best in me

Loved you, lost you, thought I'd give you all the best of me
We departed, broken hearted, I need to be free
What we had was oh so lovely
I'll swallow my pain
It's my time to find the best of me

The best of me
