Best Bit (single Version) Lyrics - Beth Orton

From my soul I found some pride 

I only found this after she died 

From a moment I acquired such grace 

Everybody seemed to want to take her place 

The best part to life it seems 

The best part of life was a dream 

The best part to breakin' up 

Is when I'm wakin' up to see 

Reality never lives up to all that it used to be 

Never seemed quite what it used to seem 

Wasn't sure it was never quite clear 

What the hell was happenin' all around here 

Never seemed to make much sense 

All that fuss for just the lack of common sense 

The best part to life it seems 

The best part of life was a dream 

The best part to breakin' up 

Is when I'm wakin' up to see 

Reality never lives up to all that it used to be 

Never seemed quite what it used to seem 

Cannot be all that it used to be 

You're not as quiet as you used to be 

From my soul I found my pride 

Only found this after she died 

From a moment I acquired such tastes 

Everybody seemed to want to take her place 

The best part to life it seems 

The best part of life was a dream 

The best part to wakin' up 

Is when I'm breakin' up to see 

Reality never lives up to all that it used to be 

Never seemed quite what it used to seem 

Cannot be all that it used to be 

You're not as quiet as you used to seem 

What did you seem? 

What did you mean?
