Best Suit and Shoes (Piano Version)
If I’d a thought I was gonna die today
I’d a put on my best suit and shoes
If I’d a thought things were gonna work out this way
I’d have took another photograph
Pulled a face just to make you laugh
These tired feet don’t know which way to go
Back the way I came or into the unknown
I’m standing at a crossroads
Don't know if I can get home
The road is dark behind me
And I don’t, I don’t know
I hear voices echo
Like floating up a stairwell
They ask me not to go
But I don’t, I don’t, I don’t know
Well I could linger here a while
Till you’re ready to let go
Unable to muster a smile
But I think you already know
If I’d a thought I was gonna die today
I’d a put on my best suit and shoes
If I’d a thought things were gonna work out this way
Well I’d have had a lot of things to say
Would not have let the moment pass away
I’m taken back to all those years before
To a moment when nothing would be the same anymore
She’s standing in the dance hall
Her backs up against the wall
And those boys can’t dance at all
Oh no, oh no
I was nervous to my core
But this time I was so sure
I led her to that dance floor
Here goes, here goes, here goes
Well we lingered there alone
Our dances ebbed and flowed
I can’t tell you more
But I think you already know
If I’d a thought I was gonna die that day
I’d a put on my best suit and shoes
If I’d a thought things were gonna work out that way
I’d have took another photograph
Pulled another face just to make her laugh
I’m ready now
I’m ready now
I’m ready now
I’m ready now
I’m ready now
I’m ready now
If I’d a thought I was gonna die today
I’d a put on my best suit and shoes
