The Best Of You Lyrics - Singles - Carnes Kim

(Kim Carnes/Eddie Reeves) 

Memories are the only things that time can't take away 

You read a book, you write a song, the time's been spent 

But in your mind the story still remains 

The song plays on 

Memories can get the best of you 

They can turn you inside out just when you least expect'em to 

And times when I'm alone, I think of things we've done 

And then I laugh right out loud to myself 

Sometimes I fool myself 

How could you possibly know 

How could you possibly see 

Yes and how could you possibly know 

That the best of you has got the best of me 

Good and bad take it all in stride 

But I'd be lying if I said I didn't you here beside me 

When it took so long to find you 

Now I just can't let you go, can't let you go 

How could you possibly know 

How could you possibly see 

Yes and how could you possibly know 

That the best of you has got the best of me
