The Best Years

He tapped me on my shoulder, so unexpected

I started to hug him but paused for a second

And that's when he showed me an old picture that he had oh

Then we started talkin' and reminiscin'

And at first I smiled, then I started to remember

That my memories of us are all bad

That's when I told him

It took me some time to get over you

Had to wrap my head around what I let you do

I was young, I was dumb, I played the fool

But one thing today prove

I gave you the best years of your life (of your life)

Now you wanna get back what you missed

But I cannot forget about what you did

I gave you the best years of your life, your life

I gave you, yea

I gave you the best years of your life

I ain't gonna lie, for a while I was bitter

Acid to my stomach every time I saw you with 'er

I know she was all those texts and late night phone calls (late night phone calls)

When you had an emergency and rushed out of home

I bet she was on the other side of the phone

Now you stand here saying you love me still (you don't love me)

I guess the grass was greener, yea

It took me some time to get over you

Had to wrap my head around what I let you do

I was young, I was dumb, I played the fool

But one thing today prove

I gave you the best years of your life (of your life)

Now you wanna get back what you missed

But I cannot forget about what you did

I gave you the best years of your life, your life (of your life)

I gave you, yea

I gave you the best years of your life (life)

Baby, ain't nobody gonna love you like I did

You'll never miss a good thing until it's gone forever

You must be out your mind

That she can give you

What you're lookin' for

Cause I know I gave you

I gave you the best years of your life (best years of your life)

Now you wanna get back what you missed

I just cannot forget about what you did

I gave you the best years of your life, your life (of your life)

I gave you, yea

I gave you the best years of your life

Just say it (say it)

I'll do it (I'll do it)

Whatever

Whatever

You're honest, I trust you

Oh, I'll follow you wherever (wherever)

If your love is overseas that's just where I'll be

Be right by your side

Love you all the time

I love you

I love you
