Best Thing

You're ready to go
I fake a smile
All that's between us now is just 3,000 miles
I move closer to you, you cover your face
You tried for months to make me notice
That you'd rather stay

So why is it so hard to tell you that
I'm not leaving you here and I want you to know
That I'm so sorry that I hurt you
You are the best thing in my life

We kiss goodbye
We run out of time
I leave you standing there all alone with strangers in line
I walk out the door, then I run back inside
Your plane is taking off into thin air
But you stayed behind

I pull you in my arms and tell you that
I'm not leaving you here and I want you to know
That I'm so sorry I hurt you
You are the best thing in my life
Somehow I know we'll make it to the other side
We can work it out, you are the best thing in my life
I tried so, tried so, tried so hard to tell you that
I'd do anything

I'm not leaving you here and I want you to know
That I'm so sorry I hurt you
You are the best thing in my life
Somehow I know we'll make it to the other side
We can work it out, you are the best thing in my life

In my life, in my life
In my life, in my life
